Size guide
Which size of cowhide rug should I choose?
Every design comes in four sizes. The right one depends on the room and the furniture around it: compare the sizes, see them to scale on a floor plan, then work out the one that suits your space.

Room by room
Overhead plans, to scale. Choose one of the four sizes to see the hide change size in the room.
In the living room
Sofa, coffee table, armchairs: the hide brings the seating area together. Choose the size based on the coffee table and the space in front of the sofa.
For a small living room or a narrow coffee table: the hide extends just beyond the table, without reaching the sofa or armchairs.
In front of a two-seater sofa or in a compact living room. The coffee table fits on the hide, with a little margin around it.
The go-to size for a living room: the coffee table sits entirely on the hide, with breathing space on every side.
For a large living room or a corner sofa: the hide reaches the foot of the sofa and brings the whole seating area together.
In the bedroom
At the foot of the bed or slipped underneath, the hide warms your first step in the morning. The size depends on the width of the bed and the space at its foot.
Across the foot of the bed: a soft first step in the morning, without touching the bed.
At the foot of a double bed, the hide slips slightly under the end of the bed and extends the bedding.
Under the end of a large bed: the hide extends a little on each side and well beyond the foot.
Under the lower half of the bed: the hide extends on each side and at the foot. A generous look for a large bedroom.
Reading corner and hallway
In front of an armchair, in a hallway or a study: a small size is often enough to transform the spot.
In front of an armchair or in a hallway: the front legs of the armchair rest on the hide, which dresses the space without crowding it.
For a wider reading corner or a spacious hallway: the hide takes up more room in front of the armchair.
For a reading corner open to the room: the armchair sits well onto the hide, which extends on each side.
The largest size covers almost the whole corner: best kept for a large hallway or a very open space, or it will feel cramped.
Find your size
Measure the clear floor space where the hide will go. We allow a margin of around twenty centimetres on each side: a hide’s shape shows best when it has room to breathe.
Recommended size: 153 × 183 cmThat leaves about 33 cm of margin around the hide.
Dimensions are approximate: every hide keeps its natural outline, which varies slightly from one piece to the next. On a smooth floor, a non-slip underlay keeps it in place.
