Moroccan Tribal Flatwoven Wool Rug – Artisan Kilim from the Middle Atlas
Add a touch of ethnic chic to your living space with our Moroccan Tribal Flatwoven Wool Rug. This 7.8 x 5 ft (237 x 155 cm) rug blends traditional Berber artistry with a clean, minimalist kilim style. It’s handwoven from 100% natural sheep wool, creating a timeless, durable piece that adds texture and soul to any room.
Handmade by women artisans from the Boujad tribe in the Middle Atlas Mountains of Morocco, each rug reflects generations of tribal knowledge and design. The result is a one-of-a-kind creation that carries cultural meaning and practical beauty.
Why a Moroccan Tribal Flatwoven Wool Rug Is the Perfect Choice
Flatwoven rugs, also known as kilims, are popular for their lightweight, low-pile structure. Unlike thick, tufted rugs, a flatweave rug is easy to clean, less prone to trapping dust, and ideal for high-traffic areas. This Moroccan rug is also pet-friendly and ideal for allergy-sensitive spaces.
Its neutral color palette and geometric tribal motifs work well with modern, bohemian, rustic, or minimalist styles. Whether you're designing a reading nook, living room, or bedroom, this rug brings authenticity and artisan charm without overwhelming your space.
Crafted by Hand – Rooted in Berber Tradition
This rug is hand-knotted using traditional Berber techniques passed down through generations. Each rug can take weeks to complete, reflecting the artisan’s skill and cultural heritage.
The weavers, mostly women from the Boujad tribe, use simple wooden looms and wool they often process themselves. This includes hand-washing, spinning, and dyeing the wool with natural pigments made from plants, earth, and minerals.
These weaving traditions have been preserved for centuries in North Africa, and Moroccan rugs have become a symbol of heritage and style worldwide.

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.

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.
