Cavendish Pinstripe Stair Runner
The Cavendish Pinstripe Stair Runner is a refined hand-tufted wool runner designed for interiors that favour subtle detail, soft colour, and understated luxury. Its delicate pinstripe layout creates a gentle sense of movement along the staircase, while the textured wool pile adds warmth, depth, and comfort underfoot.
Made in South Africa from 100% New Zealand Merino Wool, Cavendish Pinstripe stair runner is ideal for staircases, passages, and landings where a quieter, more elegant design is required. The look is graceful, timeless, and versatile, making it suitable for both contemporary and classic interiors.
Unlike heavily patterned stair runners, this design introduces visual interest without overwhelming the surrounding architecture. It is a beautiful choice for homes and design-led spaces where texture, proportion, and softness are just as important as colour.
100% New Zealand Merino Wool
Cavendish Pinstripe stair runner is made from 100% New Zealand Merino Wool, selected for its premium softness, natural warmth, and luxurious texture. Wool remains one of the most desirable fibres for stair runners because it offers comfort underfoot while maintaining a sophisticated natural finish.
The Merino wool pile gives the runner a soft, tactile surface that works beautifully in luxury homes, boutique guesthouses, interior design projects, and carefully considered residential spaces.
12mm High-Low Loop Pile
This stair runner features a 12mm high-low loop pile, giving the surface a dimensional, handcrafted character. The loop construction enhances the fine pinstripe detail, allowing the lines to sit beautifully within the textured wool surface.
The result is a stair runner with quiet depth — subtle from a distance, but richly textured up close.
Hand-Tufted in South Africa
Each Cavendish Pinstripe stair runner is hand-tufted in South Africa by skilled local makers. The hand-tufted construction allows for made-to-order production, custom sizing, and careful attention to detail.
As each runner is individually made, slight variations in texture and finish may occur. These natural differences 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 longer staircases, landings, wider stairways, passage runners, or bespoke project requirements, please contact us for custom sizing options.
Pair with Stair Rods
Cavendish Pinstripe stair runner pairs beautifully with decorative stair rods and brackets. Stainless steel rods create a clean contemporary look, while brass rods can add warmth and a more traditional 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.

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.
