Area Rug Handmade Ivory Striped Moroccan Wool Berber

$39.60 $99.00

This handmade area rug brings the warmth of authentic Moroccan weaving to any room, its ivory field crossed by bold black stripes and finished with hand-knotted tassel fringe. Woven in the Beni Ourain tradition, the rug is hand-knotted by the El Abbassi family in their workshops in Morocco's Rabat-Sale region. Each piece is tied knot by knot from 100% natural Moroccan wool on a traditional loom, never machine-tufted, with a knot density that gives the rug its structure and lets it hold its shape for decades. The plush shag pile measures roughly three centimetres, soft underfoot yet dense enough to take daily use. The design keeps things calm and graphic. A clean ivory ground carries evenly spaced black stripes, a look that settles comfortably into boho, Scandinavian, mid-century modern and eclectic interiors. Because the field stays neutral, the rug lifts a room without competing with the furniture around it, working as easily in a living room or bedroom as in a nursery, home office or sunroom. Wool is naturally resilient and a little forgiving. Vacuum regularly on a gentle setting without a beater bar, spot clean spills with mild soap and cold water, and have the rug professionally cleaned about once a year to keep the pile looking its best. The ivory tassel fringe at both ends is knotted by hand and can be combed straight with your fingers. Every rug is made to order, so expect charming variations in stripe spacing and wool tone that distinguish real handmade Berber craftsmanship from a factory copy. Pictured here at a popular size, it anchors a seating area or runs alongside a bed with room to spare. Standard worldwide shipping is free on every order and included in the price, arriving with full tracking so you can follow your new rug all the way home.

Every rug is made by hand in the El Abbassi family workshops in Morocco's Rabat-Salé region. See how our rugs are made
