Dining Room Rug Size Guide

How to Choose the Perfect Rug for Your Dining Table

A rug under your dining table adds warmth, texture, and style while defining the space. The right size ensures comfort, movement, and balance.

Key Guidelines:

• Extension: Your rug should extend at least 60–80cm beyond the table edges on all sides, to allow chairs to move freely.
• Ensure chairs remain on the rug even when pulled out for a balanced look.
• Shape: Match the rug to your table — round rugs for round tables, rectangular for rectangular tables.
• Proportion: Avoid oversized rugs that crowd the room or small rugs that appear disconnected.

Tip: Layer with natural fibre rugs like jute or wool for durability and timeless elegance.
