{"id":121,"name":"Moroccan Rug Black White Checkered Shag Berber Wool","slug":"moroccan-rug-black-white-checkered","sku":"ARA1127292603","description":"This handmade Moroccan rug lays a charcoal windowpane grid over a deep cream shag, hand-knotted in the M'rirt region of the Middle Atlas Mountains. The pattern is the old Berber windowpane: thin charcoal lines squaring off a field of undyed natural wool, closed at both ends with hand-braided black-and-white tassels. The pile is medium-to-high and properly springy, the kind you feel through your socks.\n\nEvery piece is knotted by hand by Amazigh (Berber) women using methods handed down through generations. High-altitude M'rirt sheep produce long, lustrous fibers that give the wool its signature sheen and lasting softness, and the natural lanolin in live fleece makes the rug resilient and easy to care for. The charcoal lines are dyed with organic pigments from local plants, while the cream ground stays exactly as the wool grows, undyed and natural.\n\nA black-and-white checkered rug is one of the most versatile pieces you can put on a floor. It works as a modern shag in Scandinavian and Swedish rooms, where the grid keeps things orderly and the plush pile keeps them warm, and it settles just as easily into farmhouse and coastal spaces. If your sofa is grey or oatmeal, the charcoal grid ties the room together without adding a single new color, which also makes it a safe, welcome housewarming or anniversary gift.\n\nCaring for it is straightforward. Vacuum gently without a beater bar, rotate it now and then, and blot spills immediately with a damp cloth. A professional clean handles the occasional deep refresh, and keeping the rug out of prolonged direct sunlight preserves the crisp contrast between the charcoal grid and the cream ground.\n\nShipping is always free and fully included, sent worldwide with full tracking so your rug arrives ready to unroll. Choose a Moroccan rug woven the traditional way, and bring home a monochrome classic that supports the artisans who made it.","material":"Wool","pattern":"Checkered","weaveType":"Hand-Knotted","pileHeight":"Medium Pile","shape":"rectangular","placement":"indoor","features":["handmade"],"pileThicknessIn":0.32,"fiberContent":"100% Wool","originRegion":"Middle Atlas","careInstructions":"Vacuum regularly on a low setting without a beater bar to lift dust from the pile. Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth — never rub, which pushes the stain into the wool. Spot clean with cold water and a little mild soap, then blot dry. Have deep stains and full cleans handled professionally; wool responds badly to harsh detergents. Rotate the rug every few months so it wears evenly, and keep it out of prolonged direct sunlight to protect the dyes. Shedding is normal for a new handmade wool rug and settles within the first few months.","countryOfOrigin":"Morocco","metaTitle":"Moroccan Rug, Black White Checkered Shag Wool","metaDescription":"Shop this handmade Moroccan rug: a black and white checkered shag knotted by Berber artisans.
