English term (edited):
the rug was easily shed
il tappeto fu liquidato senza difficoltà
Cioè, quando fu il momento di disfarsi dei due oggetti, non ci furono problemi per il tappeto, ma per la sedia invece sì, come si intuisce anche dal resto del testo che segue:
"When it became clear that both the rug and Alfred's chair had to go, the rug was easily shed. Enid advertised in the free local paper and netted a nervous bird of a woman who was still making mistakes and whose fifties came out of her purse in a disorderly roll that she unpeeled and flattened with shaking fingers.
But the chair? The chair was a monument and a symbol and could not be parted from Alfred. It could only be relocated, and so it went into the basement and Alfred followed."
