A Vintage Rug That Speaks in Symbols
This Vintage Moroccan Accent Rug showcases stacked, stepped diamond motifs—a signature in Berber weaving. These diamonds taper toward the top and bottom, forming a chevron-inspired pattern that draws the eye inward and grounds the room.
Each shape, from diamonds to checks and stepped forms, represents aspects of Moroccan life: protection, femininity, fertility, and nature. These tribal symbols are more than patterns—they are storytelling devices passed through generations of weavers.
No two rugs are identical. Each design is intuitive, created by hand without a written plan, which makes every rug a one-of-a-kind heirloom.
An Earthy, Expressive Color Palette
What truly sets this rug apart is its color story. A foundation of soft, creamy ivory is layered with deep navy, crimson red, muted olive green, soft pink, and poppy coral. The upper section features bold navy and pink, giving way to coral red and then earthy tones at the bottom—creating a vertical movement that energizes small spaces.
Framed in dark, irregular edges, the rug’s aesthetic remains raw and expressive. These imperfect borders honor its handwoven origin and reinforce its authentic character.
Size and Styling Versatility
Measuring 6.2 × 2.5 ft (190 × 78 cm), this accent rug is sized perfectly for:
· Hallways and narrow entryways
· Layering beneath benches or at the foot of a bed
· Placement beside a reading chair or in a cozy nook
· Use as a vibrant hallway runner
· Even as a wall-mounted tapestry
Its proportions work in tight interiors while its visual rhythm adds depth and structure to open-plan areas.
Premium Wool Craftsmanship
This rug is made from thick, hand-spun sheep’s wool—locally sourced and prepared using natural methods. The wool is hand-knotted to create a dense, medium pile of about 0.6 in / 1.5 cm, offering soft texture underfoot and year-round insulation.
Thanks to wool’s natural lanolin content, the rug resists dirt, moisture, and odors. It’s easy to maintain with gentle vacuuming and spot cleaning. Over time, it ages beautifully, developing more character with every year of use.
A Timeless Handcrafted Heirloom
Made by weavers from Morocco’s Azilal tribe, this rug reflects both cultural pride and design innovation. These artisans follow techniques passed down through generations. Their work brings forward centuries of identity and storytelling into the homes of today.
The beauty of vintage Moroccan rugs lies in their imperfections—slightly uneven edges, organic dye shifts, and natural wear. These details are not flaws; they are signs of authenticity.
Owning one of these rugs means owning a tangible piece of Moroccan heritage.
A Rug That Blends Culture and Contemporary Living
This Vintage Moroccan Accent Rug is more than just a decorative piece—it’s a visual bridge between generations. Its bold colors and geometric patterns are rooted in Berber traditions, while its size and palette make it adaptable to today’s interiors. Whether you're styling a minimalist loft or a layered boho nook, this rug adds depth, history, and texture. Its narrow size fits effortlessly in spaces that need a spark of artistry—by the bed, in an entryway, or under a favorite armchair. Every time you pass by, you’ll feel the warmth of wool, the story of its maker, and the richness of Moroccan heritage underfoot.

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?
Due to recent U.S. tariff changes, imports from Morocco are subject to a 10% duty plus standard customs fees; however, under our Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) terms, we will take full responsibility for these import charges ourselves, so you won’t have to pay anything extra.
How do you package the rugs to make sure they arrive safely?
We guarantee that your rug will arrive safely and in excellent condition, having been thoroughly inspected, cleaned, and, if necessary, restored prior to dispatch. We then fold it carefully and wrap it in multiple layers of durable, weather-resistant material to ensure it is fully protected from moisture and handling during its journey to you.

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.
