Rug Size Guide
Vintage Rug Size Guide
Vintage Turkish rugs were woven by hand, so no two share exact dimensions. Use this guide to find the right range for your room — then check each listing's exact measurements.
Quick Reference
| Size | Typical dimensions | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Runner | 2.5–4 ft × 8–13 ft | Hallways, kitchens, entryways |
| Small | 3×5 – 4×6 ft | Entryways, bathrooms, layered styling |
| Medium | 5×8 ft | Bedrooms, offices, under a coffee table |
| Large | 6×9 – 8×11 ft | Living rooms, dining rooms |
| Oversized | 9×12 ft and up | Open plans, large living rooms — anchors the whole room |
Three Rules That Always Work
- Living room: at least the front legs of all seating should rest on the rug. For a generous look, all four legs on — that usually means 8×10 or larger.
- Dining room: chairs should stay on the rug even when pulled out — add roughly 24–30 in (60–75 cm) beyond the table on every side.
- Bedroom: place the rug under the bottom two-thirds of the bed, extending 18–24 in (45–60 cm) on each side.
