Moroccan Marmoucha Wool Rug – Authentic Berber Craftsmanship for Timeless Interiors
Add a touch of warmth and elegance to your living space with the Authentic Marmoucha rug. Measuring 6.1 × 4.3 feet (186 × 131 cm), this off-white, handwoven masterpiece offers a soft natural wool texture that complements any décor style. Its handcrafted character, subtle color palette, and artisanal quality make it a versatile accent piece, perfect for creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere in any room.
Moroccan Marmoucha Wool Rug – A Blend of Tradition and Modern Style
The Authentic Marmoucha rug originates from the Middle Atlas region, known for producing some of Morocco’s finest Berber rugs. Woven entirely by hand using traditional techniques, this rug embodies the artistry and cultural heritage of the Marmoucha tribe. Its minimalist yet intricate design bridges the gap between traditional Berber motifs and contemporary interior aesthetics.
This rug’s soft ivory tones allow it to blend seamlessly into both neutral and colorful interiors, while its hand-knotted texture adds a layer of depth and visual interest.
Authentic Berber Craftsmanship
Each Marmoucha wool rug is meticulously woven by skilled artisans, often Amazigh (Berber) women, using techniques passed down through generations. The process begins with locally sourced sheep wool, which is washed, carded, and spun by hand. The weaving is done on traditional wooden looms, with every knot tied individually—ensuring durability and a unique, personal touch.
Subtle variations in weave, color tone, and motif placement are not flaws but signs of authenticity. No two Marmoucha rugs are exactly alike, making your piece a true one-of-a-kind treasure.
Soft Neutral Beauty for Every Space
The off-white base of the Authentic Marmoucha rug provides a clean, airy foundation that works beautifully in living rooms, bedrooms, home offices, or entryways. Its understated color enhances light and space, while the natural wool fibers add warmth and texture.
Pair it with:
· Scandinavian décor for a serene, minimal look.
· Bohemian style with layered textiles and earthy tones.
· Modern interiors to soften clean lines and bold accents.
· Rustic or farmhouse settings for an inviting, homey feel.
The Comfort and Benefits of Wool
Wool rugs offer unique advantages that synthetic materials can’t match. The Moroccan Marmoucha Wool Rug is:
· Naturally insulating – keeping floors warm in winter and cool in summer.
· Stain-resistant – lanolin in wool repels dirt and spills.
· Durable – retains shape and texture for years.
· Hypoallergenic – resistant to dust mites and bacteria.
· Sustainable – renewable material sourced responsibly.
The medium pile height offers a plush underfoot feel without being too thick, making it easy to vacuum and maintain.
Perfect Size for Versatile Placement
At 6.1 × 4.3 feet, this rug fits beautifully in small to medium spaces:
· As a statement piece in a living room seating area.
· Beside a bed for warmth in the morning.
· Under a coffee table to frame the space.
· In a reading nook for cozy comfort.
Ethical, Fair-Trade Production
Your purchase supports Moroccan artisans through fair-trade partnerships, ensuring that weaving communities receive fair pay for their work. By choosing this rug, you are not only enhancing your home but also preserving traditional craftsmanship and contributing to sustainable livelihoods in rural Morocco.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I clean my Moroccan rug?
Caring for your Moroccan rug is simple! For regular maintenance, we recommend gently vacuuming it 1-2 times a week (use a suction-only attachment, without a beater bar) and air it outside every few months. For minor spills, act quickly by blotting the area with a clean, dry cloth. If needed, use a small amount of water and a gentle soap. For deep cleaning, we strongly recommend seeking a professional rug cleaner who specializes in wool carpets to preserve the rug's natural fibers and vibrant colors for years to come.
◈ Vacuum Regularly → Use a low setting without a beater bar to protect the fibers.
◈ Blot Spills Immediately → Use a dry cloth for stains, gently dab with mild detergent and cold water.
◈ Protect from Moisture → Avoid excessive humidity and use a rug pad to extend its lifespan.
◈ Prevent Fading → Keep away from prolonged direct sunlight.
◈ Rotate Every Few Months → Ensures even wear and longevity.
◈ Fluff Maintain → If fibers flatten, gently brush with a soft-bristle brush.
◈ Deep Clean → Opt for professional hand-washing every 5 years or as needed.
◈ Sunbathe Monthly → If practical, let your rug in the sun occasionally. Sunlight's UV rays work as natural deodorizing and microbe protection.
◈ Avoid Harsh Chemicals → They can damage the natural wool fibers.

Will I have to pay customs fees or import duties?
For US-customers, there is no customs fees (due to An agreement that went into effect on January 1, 2006, designed to create open and fair trade between the United States and Morocco.) For other international orders shipped outside of Morocco, please be aware that your country's customs office may impose import duties, taxes, or fees. These potential charges are the responsibility of the customer. Customs policies vary widely by country, so we recommend contacting your local customs office for specific information on potential duties before placing your order.

Please remember that our rugs are handmade by artisans, not by machines. Slight variations in color, pattern, weave, and size are natural characteristics of these one-of-a-kind items. These charming imperfections are not considered defects but are part of the unique story and beauty of each piece.
Is Moroccan wool rugs durable and suitable for high-traffic areas?
Absolutely. Hand-knotted from 100% sheep wool, Moroccan rugs are renowned for their durability and resilience. Our rugs are perfect for living rooms, bedrooms, and other frequently used spaces, but be sure to follow care instructions, like rotating regularly, to keep it looking its best for years.
Do newly made wool Moroccan rugs shed?
It is completely normal for a new wool rug to shed a little at first. This is a natural characteristic of high-quality wool fibres and a sign of its authenticity. This initial shedding will decrease significantly over a few weeks with regular, gentle vacuuming.
Will the rug I receive look exactly like the one in the photo?
You will receive the exact rug shown in the photos. However, please remember that these are handmade items. We do our best to capture the colours accurately, but they may vary slightly depending on your screen's lighting and calibration. Any minor variations or "imperfections" in the pattern are part of the unique story and charm of your one-of-a-kind piece.
What are your rugs made of?
Our rugs are crafted from 100% natural, locally sourced sheep's wool. The wool's quality gives the rugs their signature softness, durability, and rich texture. The foundation (or warp) of the rug is sometimes made of cotton, which provides a strong and stable base for the wool knots.
