Cream & Gold Medallion Persian Rug

Underfoot first

Cream-and-gold is the most classically beautiful pairing in the cotton line. The warm cream ground glows under daylight and warms further by lamp light; the gold medallion sits raised above the field in tactile relief, giving the design dimensional pull. Premium 3M-points cotton brings the brushed-soft, dense-springy underfoot the line is built around. The hand reads more silk than wool — something to notice underfoot in stocking feet on a winter morning.

Designer pairing

Works beautifully on white-oak, bleached pine, pale walnut, and limestone tile. Upholstery: cream linen for continuity, dusty-blue velvet for cool tension, sage-green for soft-romantic, cognac leather for warmth. Brass lighting amplifies the gold; gilded mirrors and brass picture lights complete the room. Strong under round dining tables (the medallion centers under a round) and in primary bedrooms with brass bedframes.

Care

Not machine-washable. Vacuum twice weekly; the cream ground shows surface dirt and shoe scuffing more than darker palettes. Use a rug pad with light grip and address spills immediately with cool water. Professional clean every 12 months for high-traffic placement.

5 × 7.5 ft · 6.5 × 10 ft · 8.2 × 11.5 ft · 10 × 13 ft. See variant selector for current pricing and availability.

Family / lifestyle

Cream-and-gold is the most timelessly beautiful and the most demanding palette in the line. It photographs spectacularly and reads luminous in person, but it asks for clean-shoe discipline at the door and prompt response to any spill. Cotton's softer hand is genuinely kinder than wool underfoot — but this is a careful-room rug, not a play-room rug.

Best for / Skip if

Best for: primary bedrooms, formal dining rooms, sunrooms, formal living rooms, dressing rooms.
Skip if: the room sees daily traffic from young children or pets — choose the gray-and-gold or red-and-gold sibling instead.

Visit the Sacramento showroom

Cream's true cast (warm vs neutral vs cool) is best judged in person under the lighting it will live in. Our Watt Avenue showroom in Sacramento carries the line.

Browse the full 3M-points cotton collection or the cream palette for related pieces.

This piece sits in the cotton family — cotton face on a cotton foundation, precision machine-woven for sharp pattern definition with hand-finished edges. The cotton hand is softer and lighter than wool underfoot, reads more tonal, and suits bedrooms, sunrooms, and adult-led households where palette quietness matters.

Patterns draw on Persian medallion and field traditions, translated into the cotton register: lighter, more luminous, more breathable than a comparable wool weave. Care is straightforward but not machine-wash — see the Care panel for details on this construction.

5×7.5 ft (150×230 cm, 3.5 m²) — entry rooms, small bedrooms, and sitting areas.

6.5×10 ft (200×300 cm, 6 m²) — medium living rooms and bedrooms with furniture partially on the rug.

8.2×11.5 ft (250×350 cm, 9 m²) — large living rooms and formal dining rooms (all furniture sitting on the rug).

10×13 ft (300×400 cm, 12 m²) — open floor plans and great rooms.

Styling tip: a rug should extend 18–24 inches beyond the sofa on each side for a balanced look.

• Vacuum weekly with the beater bar off to protect the pile
• Blot spills immediately with a clean white cloth (don't rub)
• Rotate the rug 180° every 6 months for even wear
• Professional clean every 12–18 months
• Use a quality rug pad on hardwood for cushion and to extend life
