5x8 Rugs (170 x 240 cm)
Sized for a twin bed, flexible everywhere else.
At 5' by 8', this size lines up closely with a twin bed - enough coverage to extend well past the sides and foot without leaving the rest of the room feeling crowded.
Built Around a Twin Bed
If you're furnishing a bedroom with a twin bed, this is one of the more naturally matched sizes we carry. See our Bedroom Rugs page for sizing guidance across every bed size.
A Layering Trick Worth Trying
If you already have an older, larger jute or sisal rug, placing a 5x8 rug on top of it is a simple way to add real texture and color without replacing what's underneath - the larger rug still does its job as a base, while the smaller one becomes the visual focus.
Enough Room for a Larger Kitchen
In a bigger kitchen with more open floor space, this size gives more coverage than a standard runner without turning into a full room-anchor piece. See our Kitchen Rugs page for more on choosing the right shape and weave for that space.
Also Worth Considering For
This size works well beyond the bedroom and kitchen too - a smaller living room, a study, or a hallway looking for more coverage than a smaller accent piece provides.
