Yellow is the sunniest colour in our vintage collection. A yellow vintage rug ranges from soft straw and pale gold through warm mustard and saffron to rich ochre. The distressed finish softens the colour, so even a strong mustard reads as warm and homely rather than bright.
Our yellow vintage rugs are hand-knotted Persian carpets, usually 20 to 50 years old, cleaned, sheared and over-dyed in our own workshop. The original pattern stays visible and every piece is one of a kind in its own shade of yellow.
Yellow brings light and warmth into a room and works especially well with grey, white, dark blue and natural wood. Mustard and ochre are favourites for mid-century and boho interiors, pale gold for Scandinavian and classic rooms. Every rug has its own video, which shows the real shade more accurately than the pictures. Free EU shipping and 30-day returns.
Grey and yellow is the classic pairing. Yellow also works with white, dark blue, green and natural wood. Keep the rest of the room calm and let the rug be the accent.
Not as a vintage rug. Mustard and ochre tones are warm neutrals in practice and hide everyday wear well.
Pale gold and straw for bedrooms and light rooms, mustard and ochre for living rooms with grey or wooden furniture, saffron as a bold accent in a hallway.
Yellow is lighter and fresher, orange is warmer and stronger. Deep ochre sits between the two and works with both palettes.
