Kensington Fine Line Stair Runner
The Kensington Fine Line Stair Runner is a refined hand-tufted wool stair runner designed for interiors that favour clean lines, soft texture, and understated elegance. Its delicate vertical stripe detail creates a subtle sense of rhythm along the staircase, while the wool pile adds warmth and comfort underfoot.
Made in South Africa from 100% New Zealand Merino Wool, Kensington Fine Line offers a calm, tailored finish for staircases, passages, and landing areas. The design is minimal enough for contemporary interiors, yet classic enough to sit comfortably within more traditional homes.
Its fine linear pattern gives the runner a structured appearance without feeling busy, making it a beautiful choice for interiors where texture and proportion are more important than bold pattern.
100% New Zealand Merino Wool
Kensington Fine Line Stair Runner is made from 100% New Zealand Merino Wool, selected for its soft hand feel, natural warmth, and luxurious finish. Wool remains a premium choice for stair runners because it offers comfort, texture, and a naturally elegant appearance.
The Merino wool pile gives the runner a soft, tactile quality that works beautifully in luxury homes, boutique guesthouses, hospitality spaces, and interior design projects.
12mm High-Low Loop Pile
This stair runner features a 12mm high-low loop pile, giving the surface a subtle dimensional finish. The high-low construction enhances the fine line detail, allowing the stripes to sit gently within the textured wool surface.
The result is a runner that looks calm from a distance, but richly detailed up close.
Hand-Tufted in South Africa
Each Kensington Fine Line stair runner is hand-tufted in South Africa by skilled local makers. The hand-tufted construction allows for made-to-order production, consistent quality, and flexibility for custom sizing.
As each runner is individually made, slight natural variations in texture and finish may occur. These are part of the character of a handcrafted wool product.
Standard and Custom Sizing
The standard width is 800mm, making it suitable for most residential staircases.
Available standard lengths:
- 6m
- 8m
For wider staircases, longer runs, landing sections, passage runners, or bespoke project requirements, please contact us for custom sizing options.
Pair with Stair Rods
Kensington Fine Line Stair Runner pairs beautifully with decorative stair rods and brackets. Brass rods add warmth and contrast, while stainless steel rods create a cleaner, more contemporary finish.
Please note that stair rods are decorative. The runner should still be professionally secured using the correct stair runner installation method.
Lead Time
This product is made to order with an estimated 4–6 week lead time from order confirmation.
Custom sizing, special colour requirements, or project-specific specifications may affect the final production timeline.

Care & Maintenance
Vacuum regularly using a suction-only vacuum where possible. Avoid aggressive rotating brush heads, as these may disturb the wool pile over time.
Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry, absorbent cloth. Do not rub, as this may push the spill deeper into the fibres. For deeper cleaning or stubborn marks, professional rug and carpet cleaning is recommended.
As with most wool products, light shedding may occur at first and will reduce with regular care.
