Product Insights
The Linear Stem Olive Hallway Wool Rug by Orla Kiely, priced at $729 CAD, is a 100% pure new wool runner from Brink & Campman that combines mid-century design roots with 18+ years of continuous production and automotive collaborations like Citroën DS3. Its dense 2500g/m² pile and 17mm height resist crushing and pilling from heavy traffic, while lanolin naturally repels spills such as mud and coffee. An integrated non-slip backing eliminates the need for an underlay on hard floors, and the dense wool dampens noise and insulates against cold. Custom sizes are available for non-standard hallways, and color accuracy maintains high contrast under indoor light. The main tradeoff is the premium cost for a highly durable, stain-resistant, and tailored hallway solution.
Verified claims
- Mid-century roots
- Mid-century modern style with a retro mood: the olive floral/linear-stem pattern draws on 1960s–70s textile design, citing Barbara Brown and Arne Jacobsen.
- Design
- 18+ years continuous production, Irish stamp, and Citroën DS3 collaboration
- Material
- 100% pure new wool from Brink & Campman, naturally stain resistant
- Durability
- Resists pilling and compression from heavy hallway traffic.
- Stain resistance
- Wool's natural lanolin gives inherent stain resistance, so spills like mud and coffee are less likely to absorb instantly.
- Partnership
- Made by Brink & Campman, a specialist rug maker, ensuring quality beyond licensed designs.
- Custom sizes
- Custom sizes available on request for non-standard hallway lengths.
- Non-slip backing
- The 100% wool runner has an integrated cotton-and-latex non-slip backing that grips hard floors without a separate underlay.
- Construction
- Pile weight: 2500 g/m²; pile height: 17 mm. This dense, moderate-height wool pile resists crushing and distributes wear in hallway traffic.
- Stability
- The 2500 g/m² pile weight and integrated non-slip backing reduce bunching and slippage under foot traffic.
- Insulation
- Dense wool pile dampens noise and insulates against cold floors.
- Color accuracy
- True olive with subtle black-grey tones; under indoor light, pattern contrast remains high.
- Pattern distinctiveness
- The Linear Stem pattern is a mid-century floral used across Orla Kiely's fashion and home lines, which distinguishes this runner from the generic motifs on other designer wool runners.
- Door clearance
- The 17mm cut-pile height stays low-profile enough for doors and vacuums to pass easily, helping the runner sit safely in a hallway.
- Origin and construction
- The Linear Stem Olive Hallway Wool Rug is designed in the Netherlands and handmade in India as a hand-tufted wool piece.
