Product details
Heavy-traffic spaces demand rugs that layer color and pattern while standing up to years of daily wear. The Calo abstract area rug delivers navy, beige, and gray tones in a hand-finished design that grounds living rooms and dining areas without surrendering to scuffs or fading. An area rug anchors furniture zones and defines visual boundaries within open floor plans through color, texture, and scale--this piece builds its case on recycled polyester fibers machine-woven for resilience and hand-washed to replicate the depth of hand-knotted craft. The Calo Abstract Gray/Multi rug in five sizes from 2'6" x 8' to 10' x 13' is available at Sideboards and Things with free shipping. Choose from the LOOMLAN rug collection for more abstract and contemporary floor-covering designs.

Why Choose a Recycled Polyester Rug from Sideboards and Things?
Machine-woven recycled fibers resist stains and recover from furniture impressions better than natural-fiber alternatives, making them the practical choice for households managing spills and foot traffic. The Calo's medium pile offers underfoot softness while maintaining the structure needed beneath dining tables and sectional seating groups, and its navy-beige-ivory palette pairs with warm wood credenzas, brass lighting, and neutral upholstery across contemporary and transitional styles. Anchor a conversation zone by floating front furniture legs on the 9' x 12' size, or unify an open-plan great room with the 10' x 13' format that stretches under multiple seating groups. Browse the Addison rug collection for additional abstract and geometric floor patterns, or explore the full furniture catalog to complete the room.
How to Size and Place Your Area Rug
The 2'6" x 8' runner fits hallways and galley kitchens where a standard rectangle would block traffic, while the 5' x 7' suits studio apartments and bedroom layouts that need a soft landing beside the bed. For dining tables seating six to eight, position the 8' x 10' to extend at least 24 inches beyond the table edge on all sides, allowing chairs to pull out without catching on the rug border. In living rooms, the 9' x 12' defines the seating zone when all front furniture legs rest on the rug surface, and the 10' x 13' grounds large open-concept spaces where kitchen, dining, and living areas share a single floor plane.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the difference between a sideboard, a credenza, and a buffet?
- A sideboard is a low storage cabinet with doors and drawers for dining-room service; a credenza typically features sliding doors and sits in an office or living room; a buffet is the dining-specific term for the same form, often with a hutch option for display.
- Does the Calo rug arrive assembled?
- Yes, the rug ships rolled and ready to unroll--no assembly required.
- Is this rug machine washable?
- No, the Calo requires spot cleaning with mild detergent and water; annual professional cleaning preserves the hand-washed finish and color depth.
- Can I use this rug outdoors on a covered patio?
- No, the Calo is rated for indoor use only; outdoor exposure will degrade the recycled polyester fibers and backing.
- How long until my order ships?
- This rug ships within 48-72 hours via free curbside delivery to the continental USA; white-glove in-room placement is available upon request for an additional fee.
- How do I care for a rug in a high-traffic area?
- Vacuum weekly using a beater-bar attachment on medium pile settings, rotate the rug 180 degrees every six months to even wear, and blot spills immediately with a clean cloth before spot-cleaning with a mild detergent solution.
