Description
A softly faded Persian medallion design in slate gray and dusty blue — classic enough for a formal room, durable enough for the porch or entryway.
A rectangular runner-proportioned area rug with a classic Persian medallion layout. The field is a softly faded cream and warm beige ground, overlaid with a large central medallion and two smaller flanking medallions rendered in slate gray, dusty blue, and muted navy. Dense floral scrollwork and vine motifs fill the field between medallions. A multi-layered border frames the entire composition with repeating geometric and floral bands in coordinating gray, blue, and cream tones. The overall finish has a deliberately distressed, vintage-washed appearance — colors appear gently sun-bleached rather than saturated. The pile is low and smooth with a machine-woven surface texture. Edges are cleanly bound with no fringe or tassels. The rug reads as cool-toned and quietly ornate at a glance.

About This Rug
The Nourison Essentials Persian rug brings timeless Middle Eastern design into a soft, wearable palette of slate gray, dusty blue, and warm cream. A central medallion anchors the composition, surrounded by intricate floral scrollwork and a layered border — all rendered in a beautifully faded, vintage-washed finish that feels both classic and effortlessly current. At just 0.25 inches thick, this low-profile rug lies flat quickly and works beautifully in high-traffic areas like hallways, entryways, and living rooms.
What sets it apart is its outdoor-safe construction — the polypropylene pile and foam latex backing make it resilient against moisture, UV exposure, and everyday wear, so it transitions seamlessly from a covered porch to a sunroom to a dining room floor. The muted, distressed color palette means it pairs naturally with a wide range of furniture styles, from traditional wood pieces to modern upholstered sofas. Whether you're layering it over a larger neutral rug or letting it stand alone as a runner, this Nourison piece delivers classic Persian character with practical, real-life durability.
Care & Cleaning
To maintain the look and longevity of your outdoor rugs, adhere to the following instructions:
- Use a dry cotton or white paper towel to blot out as much of the stain as possible.
- Gently scrape off any food or debris using a dull instrument.
- Prepare a cleaning solution of a small amount of dish soap mixed with a cup of cold water. With a clean sponge and this soap mixture, clean the remainder of the stain and allow it to dry.
- For comprehensive cleaning, apply a mixture of soap and water and spray over the rug, then rinse off using a garden hose.
