Using Copper Rugs

Copper rugs work well for bringing warm colors into a home, especially when surrounded by natural tones. This beautiful tone has been popping up in homes everywhere since 2012, and it continues to trend today. A copper area rug can make your space feel enchanting and elegant, adding rustic glam to any room.

As you search for the perfect copper rugs, we hope you’ll enjoy our selection from top designers and brands such as Calvin Klein, Kaleen, Nourison, Safavieh, Surya, and more. With a wide range of styles to choose from, you’re sure to find something that suits your tastes.

Since copper is a warm and earthy tone, it’s versatile and can work with most interior themes. For example, a palette with brown, black, wood, white, grey, and most natural tones will complement copper rugs well. Most designers recommend selecting four to five colors per room to avoid a chaotic aesthetic.

If copper doesn’t fit with your palette, but you still want a warm earthy color, try bronze, terracotta, rose gold, or rust.

Below, you’ll find some of our favorite ways to use a copper area rug throughout the home for those who’d like some inspiration:

Living Room

Copper-colored area rugs fit in with living rooms that are decorated in warm and earthy colors. They can also go well with colors like white, grey, black, yellow, tan, ivory, blue, and green, among others. Consider pairing your rug with an ivory couch and chair setup, surrounded by wood accents.

Bedroom

A copper shag rug in the bedroom can add warmth and depth to the space. Shag rugs do best in low-traffic zones, which is why most bedrooms are an ideal location to install them. Place your rug under the bottom two-thirds of your bed so that the floor on both sides and the front are soft and warm under your feet.

Bathroom

If you want to use copper in the bathroom, try a copper and blue rug. Blue is a calming color that’s associated with water, and it’s common in the bathroom area for this reason. If your bathroom has copper accents on the cabinetry, this will be an even better match.

What’s Next?

Decorating with copper tones is exciting, thanks to the versatility offered by this stunning color. With so many applications, it’s hard to go wrong.

Ready to pick the perfect copper area rug for your home? If so, we recommend checking out the tips below to help avoid common buyer’s mistakes:

• Measure Carefully: Do you know whether you need a 9x12, 8x10, or 5x8 copper rug? Appropriate rug dimensions can be found by measuring your room and using a placement guide for reference.
• Consider Durability: Choose a rug that’s durable enough for the traffic and exposure in your home. If you can’t keep your rug clean or in good condition, it won't matter how beautiful it is.
• Get a Rug Pad: Pads prevent sliding damage to the pile and backing on your rug. We recommend adding a rug pad to your order at checkout.
