Hand-Tufted New Zealand Merino Wool
Each Greek Key Hand-Tufted Runner is made from premium New Zealand merino wool, selected for its softness, resilience, and luxurious feel underfoot. The wool is hand-tufted into a dense 12mm pile, creating a runner that feels plush, refined, and beautifully suited to everyday residential use.

- New Zealand merino wool pile
- Hand-tufted construction
- 12mm pile height for a soft yet substantial finish
- Exclusive Woven Bliss design
- Made to order for a more considered and bespoke result
- Designed to bring warmth, comfort, and decorative impact to the staircase
A Decorative Border Design with Architectural Presence
The defining feature of the Greek Key Hand-Tufted Runner is its striking border. The repeated Greek key motif introduces rhythm and heritage-inspired character, while the narrow linear stripes frame the design with crisp definition. This gives the runner a highly tailored appearance that enhances the shape and flow of the staircase.
Its dark central field grounds the design beautifully, while the lighter border provides contrast and visual clarity. The overall effect is sophisticated, balanced, and distinctly luxurious.
This runner is especially well-suited to:
- Main staircases
- Entrance stairways
- Double-storey homes
- Classic and contemporary interiors
- Hospitality-inspired residential spaces
- It is ideal for homeowners who want a stair runner that feels bold, elegant, and timeless.
A High-Contrast Colour Palette for Sophisticated Interiors
The rich black ground creates depth and drama, while the lighter border detail sharpens the design and highlights the Greek-inspired motif. This classic contrast makes the runner especially versatile, pairing beautifully with natural timber stairs, white-painted risers, black accents, brass finishes, and layered neutral interiors.
The result is a stair runner that feels formal enough to make a statement, yet restrained enough to remain timeless.
