Boasting an unfussy lived-in look, this low-maintenance rug elevates any space. “I like this rug because it’s made [of] polyester and has a low pile, so it has great cleanability for my clients with children or pets,” Kanfi says. “The rug pattern in a distressed finish gives a vintage vibe and is perfect for a space with a neutral color palette.”
