Sky Blue Rugs

Sky blue rugs in the room

Sky blue stands for a sense of space. The shade is lighter and cooler than classic light blue and recalls a clear morning sky. As a rug, it adds hardly any weight to a room and instead creates a bright, friendly mood. This makes sky blue a good choice for rooms with little daylight and for anyone who wants only a hint of colour.

In the bedroom

In the bedroom, sky blue feels calming and fresh at the same time. With white or grey bed linen it creates a clear, Scandinavian-style look, and with natural wood and linen a softer variant. A rug beside or under the bed makes the room noticeably cosier in the morning. You will find more designs under Bedroom Rugs.

In the nursery

Sky blue is also popular in children’s rooms, because it looks friendly and goes with many colours. Toys in bright colours, wooden furniture and textiles in yellow or pink stand out well against it. We show suitable ideas among the nursery rugs.

In the living room

In the living room, a sky blue rug acts as a bright, restful focal point. With a white or sand-coloured sofa it creates a gentle tone-on-tone effect, and with dark furniture a clear but never harsh contrast. For the delicate colour to come into its own, the rug should be large enough for at least the front legs of the seating to stand on it.

Which sky blue rugs does Morgenland offer?

This page shows every rug in sky blue, modern designs as well as Oriental rugs. The range in this delicate shade is very small: at the moment it is a hand-knotted Bukhara rug from Pakistan, made of virgin wool, with an all-over patterned field. New sky blue rugs appear on this page automatically, so it is worth checking back regularly.

Oriental rugs with a sky blue field are rarer, because in classic patterns the pale blue usually serves as a supporting colour. Pieces in which it defines the whole surface stand out all the more. You will find a large selection of classic patterns under Oriental Rugs.

Sizes and shapes

Our sky blue rugs come mainly in rectangular sizes, from small bedside rugs to sizes for the living room. Since the selection in this delicate shade is smaller and changes often, it is worth looking at related shades of blue with a larger range.

Which colours go with sky blue?

• White and light grey for a clear, airy room.
• Sand and natural tones as a warm complement.
• Soft yellow for a spring-like look.
• Silver and chrome for a cool, modern accent.
• Light wood such as maple or birch.

Frequently asked questions about sky blue rugs

What is the difference between sky blue and light blue?

Sky blue is even lighter and cooler, almost whitish. Light blue has more colour and often appears warmer in Oriental rugs. If you would like a little more colour, you will find a much larger selection among the light blue rugs.

How do I combine sky blue with patterns?

A plain sky blue rug goes well with patterned cushions, curtains or wallpaper, as long as their colours stay light. If the rug itself has a pattern, plain fabrics in white, sand or grey look calmest. Strong accents in yellow or coral should be used sparingly so that the delicate ground colour is not lost.

Is such a light rug practical for everyday use?

In rooms with little foot traffic, such as the bedroom, yes. For the hallway and dining area, darker or patterned rugs that show marks less are a better choice, for example from our dark blue rugs.
