Rohan Galloping Round Rug - Lord of the Rings Chair Mat

At the center of this Lord of the Rings round rug, a white horse leaps through tall grass toward a rising sun, all in deep forest green and antique gold. The whole artwork is laid out for the circle, with each ring of detail spreading outward from the horse like ripples from a dropped stone.

A circle changes how a room reads. It softens square corners, gives a desk chair a place to land, and fills the empty patch beside a bed or in front of an armchair. Tucked under a desk, it works as a chair mat that keeps the central horse in view. This design pulls the eye inward, so it rewards being seen from above.

The Design: Rohan Heraldry in Gold

The piece borrows the look of Rohan's banners: a pale horse on green, gold sun medallions, and knotwork that loops like old metalwork. At the center the horse gallops across tall grass beneath a half-risen sun, framed by a ring of gold horse heads that alternate with small starbursts. Beyond that ring sit eight painted panels. Two show the golden hall on its hill under a blue sky, two show flowering green downs, and four hold banners, round shields and curved drinking horns. A border of white horses in full gallop runs around the rim, broken up by Celtic knots.

The palette stays disciplined. Forest green carries the ground, antique gold handles every outline and ornament, and ivory is saved for the horses so they stand out. The painted panels bring in the only blues, soft sky and distant hills, which keeps the whole rug from feeling heavy.

Rohan on the Floor

The cut is a true circle, so it works as a round area rug in a corner or in the middle of the floor. The surface is a soft plush low-pile that feels good underfoot yet stays flat enough for a chair to glide across. A non-slip rubber backing grips hard floors such as hardwood, tile and laminate, so the rug stays where you put it. It is also machine washable on a gentle cold cycle, then air-dried, which helps when life gets messy. Colors are applied by dye-sublimation, so the gold and green are set into the fibers rather than sitting on top. The rug suits a study, a fan's gaming corner or a quiet bedroom. Pair it with a Lord of the Rings mouse pad on the desk above for a matching set.

Sizes & Rug Level

Six diameters are available, from 80 cm (31.5″) to 180 cm (70.9″), with steps at 100, 120, 140 and 160 cm. The 80 and 100 cm sizes sit under a desk chair or beside a bed, where the central horse stays visible. The smaller sizes also work as an accent rug. At 120 to 140 cm the design fills a reading nook, while 160 and 180 cm anchor a seating area and show all eight painted panels.

Two levels are offered. Standart Level is solid everyday quality. Premium Level adds a thicker, plusher pile and a more durable backing for spots that see more foot traffic.

Quick Questions

Is it machine washable?

Yes. Use a gentle cold cycle and air-dry it, since the print is set into the fibers and not just on the surface.

Does it slip on hard floors?

No, the rubber backing grips hardwood, tile and laminate, so the horse stays put even when a chair rolls over it.

Can I put it over carpet?

Yes, it lies flat over low-pile carpet, which is handy if you want the Rohan horse in a carpeted study or bedroom.

Which size should I choose?

Go with 100 cm for a desk chair, 140 cm for a reading nook, and 180 cm if you want the full ring of panels at the center of a seating area. Pick 80 cm for a tight spot.
