accent rug

Small decorative carpet

An accent rug is a small decorative rug used to add color, texture, or visual interest to a room rather than to cover the entire floor.

Unlike wall-to-wall carpeting or large area rugs, accent rugs highlight specific spaces—in front of a fireplace, beside a bed, or beneath a coffee table: She placed an accent rug to tie the seating area together.
