Collection: Vintage Rugs & Carpets

Vintage rugs - warmth, texture, character

Our collection of vintage rugs brings warmth, colour, and history to your floors. Each vintage rug tells a story, adding depth and atmosphere that new carpets rarely achieve. Choosing a vintage rug is also a responsible choice, since you give existing materials a second life and reduce waste. At TROC Leuven in Herent, Belgium, we handpick each piece for quality, authenticity, and charm. You enjoy character, durability, and attractive pricing, with delivery across Belgium and shipping worldwide available for your favourite vintage rugs.

Why choose vintage rugs?

• Sustainability: Vintage rugs extend the life of existing materials, reducing the need for new production and lowering your environmental footprint.
• Unique character: A vintage rug often features colours, patterns, and patina you will not find in mass-produced carpets.
• Affordable quality: You can access hand-knotted or premium woven rugs at prices far below comparable new pieces.
• Convenience and service: Reserve a rug for two days, enjoy delivery across Belgium, and benefit from safe worldwide shipping for international buyers.

What you will find in this category

In our vintage rugs category, you will discover a wide variety of sizes, materials, and styles. We source wool, cotton, and mixed-fibre rugs, from subtle neutrals to rich orientals. You can find hallway runners, living room statement pieces, bedroom soft textures, and office-friendly designs. Some rugs are hand-knotted, others are woven or tufted, each chosen for quality and decorative value.

• Classic Persian and Oriental-style vintage rugs with intricate borders and central medallions.
• Mid-century and retro geometric rugs that pair beautifully with our Seating and Tables collections.
• Soft shag or high-pile carpets that add cosy comfort to living rooms and bedrooms.
• Flat-weave kilim-style runners perfect for hallways, kitchens, or layered under smaller Cabinets and Decoration pieces.

Buying tips for vintage rugs

• Measurement and fit: Measure your space carefully, including door clearances and furniture placement, and compare with the rug dimensions before you decide.
• Material condition: Check the pile, edges, and backing for wear, old repairs, or fading, and ask us for detailed photos or a closer look in-store.
• Matching style with space: Consider your existing Seating, Lighting, and colour palette so the vintage rug supports your overall atmosphere instead of competing with it.
• Restoration and care: Ask us about gentle cleaning, underlays for stability, and whether minor fringe or edge repairs could extend the life of the rug.

How to style your rugs

Vintage rugs are powerful design tools in both homes and offices around Leuven and beyond. In a living room, use a larger rug to anchor the seating area, making sure the front legs of sofas and chairs rest on the rug for a cohesive feel. In a workspace, a patterned vintage rug adds warmth under a desk or meeting table while keeping a professional look. Layer a smaller rug over a neutral base carpet to highlight a favourite piece, or place a narrow runner in a hallway to draw the eye through your Herent home. Combine your rug with complementary Lighting and Decoration to tie colours and textures together.

FAQ

Are vintage rugs durable enough for everyday use?

Many vintage rugs were originally made to last for decades, especially hand-knotted wool pieces. When the structure is sound, they often handle daily use very well. We help you select rugs suited to high-traffic or low-traffic areas.

How do I clean and maintain a vintage rug?

Regular vacuuming without a rotating brush, prompt blotting of spills, and occasional professional cleaning keep most vintage rugs in good condition. We can advise on care based on fibre type and existing wear.

Can I see exact colours of a rug before buying?

Yes, you are always welcome at our showroom in Herent, near Leuven, to view rugs in person. If you cannot visit, we can provide additional photos and descriptions to help you judge colour, pattern, and texture.
