Tess is a retro black white checkered rug with bronze wavy edges and a warm café mood. The black and white checkerboard gives the rug a clear vintage floor rhythm, while the bronze curves bend the strict grid into something looser and more unexpected. That mix of checkered pattern and wavy shape gives Tess its unique retro character, like a small checked floor from an old café or record-shop corner softened into a tufted rug for real homes. The earthy bronze colour, curved edge and lightly high-low surface give the piece one cosy graphic kick with a quietly strange edge.

The 60×90cm size works well beside a bed, near a sofa, by a reading chair, under a small desk, or anywhere a compact corner needs one graphic checkered accent. The 45×150cm runner size works better for a hallway, bedside run, narrow walkway, kitchen side, or the open edge of a seating area. Around 20mm thick overall, with lower areas around 16mm, Tess has gentle height variation that adds texture without making the rug feel bulky.

Good to know: Finished with bronze stitched edging and a non-slip backing to help it sit more securely on hard floors. Free delivery over £79 / €99 / $109.
