Bold Red Diamond Pattern Handwoven Rug – Authentic Beni Mguild Wool (10.5 × 6.5 ft)

This bold red diamond rug is a vibrant tribute to the artistry of the Beni Mguild tribe, hailing from Morocco’s Middle Atlas Mountains. Measuring 10.5 by 6.5 feet, it brings a striking visual presence and deep cultural resonance to any room. The rug’s design features bold red diamond patterns filled with intricate abstract details. In Berber symbolism, these diamonds represent protection and unity, making the rug much more than a decorative piece — it is a living cultural emblem.

Fiery, Expressive Color Palette

The rich colors of this Bold Red Diamond Rug create a dynamic, flame-like effect. Deep reds, burgundy, orange, rust, cream, and black interplay with subtle hints of lavender and coral. This saturated palette contrasts beautifully, drawing the eye and creating warmth. These hues are achieved through natural, hand-dyed wool, which adds depth and subtle variation to the colors.

 Artisanal Craftsmanship & Texture

This rug’s thick, plush texture is typical of high-pile, hand-knotted or hand-loomed construction. The slightly shaggy surface invites touch and adds tactile comfort to your space. The density and subtle irregularities in the yarns showcase the artisan’s hand, reflecting an authentic handmade quality that machine-made rugs cannot match.

Careful bands and subtle asymmetries in the design echo the weaver’s personal touch, blending tradition with vibrant life. Every knot tells a story and connects you with centuries of Moroccan weaving heritage.

 Perfect for Modern, Rustic, or Eclectic Interiors

This rug shines as a statement piece in various interiors. Its fiery reds and warm tones contrast beautifully against minimalist furniture and natural materials like wood, linen, or leather. Use it to add character to a living room, cozy reading nook, or even a bedroom.

The bold design complements rustic and eclectic decors as well, lending warmth and texture to your space. Whether layered over hardwood floors or placed atop softer surfaces, this rug brings both visual impact and cozy comfort.
