Cambridge carpet Taupe pure linen from Libeco
The Cambridge Taupe pure linen rug from Libeco borrows its colours from the English university town and turns them into a reserved grey-brown. Taupe neither warms nor cools a room too much, so it settles into light and dark interiors alike. Fringes finish both ends. Underfoot the heavy linen feels firm, and in summer it stays refreshingly cool beneath bare feet. Stone, wood and modern furniture all sit comfortably beside it.
Several rectangular rugs in muted shades of brown, light brown and gray are laid out on a patterned brick floor, with some rugs overlapping. Part of a white wall can be seen in the background.

What Libeco calls linen colours
At Libeco the earthy, muted shades of the Cambridge collection have a name of their own: the designers call them linen colours. Taupe is one of three, alongside Mink and Wheat. For these rugs the brief asked for a very robust construction, fringed at both ends and best laid on a rug underlay. That sobriety suits a house that has worked with flax since 1858 and, from 2006, under a Belgian Royal Warrant. The European flax qualifies for the Masters of Linen label. In addition, the Belgian Linen seal commits Libeco to sustainable production, and the rug leaves Belgium CO₂-neutrally.

Description

Pure linen in taupe, woven to last

Cambridge Taupe is 100 per cent washed linen, heavy at 1000 g/m², its plain weave drawn from Nm 58 yarn. Linen alone carries the load here. Its strong, resilient fibre makes the rug hard-wearing and still forms a cushion of warm air above the floor. The flax is organic and grows in Europe. Since linen is antistatic, it attracts little dust and tolerates regular vacuuming. It also resists dirt by nature. Five sizes reach from a small mat to a generous living room rug and a long runner. Cambridge Taupe belongs to the Libeco rugs collection.

Care

Cambridge Taupe looks its best on a rug underlay, which keeps it flat and stops it from slipping. For everyday care, regular vacuuming suffices. If you ever wash it, remember the guidance for coloured linen: no warmer than 60 degrees, and cooler still where possible. Detergents with optical brighteners bleach natural tones, so they belong elsewhere. Above all, keep the tumble dryer out of the picture, as too much drying shrinks linen.
