Collection: Classic Rugs

Classic Rugs – Timeless Elegance for Any Space

Classic rugs offer a sense of heritage, detail and quiet luxury that never goes out of style.
Their intricate motifs, deep colours and carefully balanced designs are inspired by Persian, Oriental and antique European patterns.

At Onlinetapijten.be, we offer a handpicked collection of classic rugs that suits both traditional and modern-classic interiors — available online and in our showroom in Willebroek.

What Is a Classic Rug?

Classic rugs are known for their ornamental detail, symmetry and rich colour palettes.
They often feature central medallions, floral vines, or repeating borders, and are crafted from wool, viscose, or blended fibres.
The result? A rug that’s decorative, durable, and deeply timeless.

Signature Features of Classic Rugs

✔ 🧶 Premium materials – wool, viscose or wool blends
✔ 🏛️ Iconic motifs – medallions, floral vines, paisley or damask patterns
✔ 🎨 Deep colours – think burgundy, navy, beige, gold, cream or forest green
✔ 🪶 Finely woven with texture, sheen or subtle raised accents

How to Use Classic Rugs in Your Interior

Classic rugs create visual structure, warmth and prestige.
They’re stunning under wooden dining tables, centre-stage in living rooms, or placed under the bed in a refined master suite.
