Hand knotted wool rugs made in Morocco
Here you will find all our long and short pile wool rugs, completely hand knotted using precise and elaborate ancestral techniques. Shaggy, hairy or flat pile, with or without fringes, plain or colored, they are all handcrafted products.
They are mainly made of sheep's wool, a renewable and exceptional material. Naturally antibacterial and hypoallergenic, natural wool is an excellent insulator from the cold. In fact, traditionally, they were also used as blankets and mattresses, precious allies in the mountainous regions where they are created.
The weight varies according to the density of the knots and the warp material: traditionally it is wool, but sometimes it can be cotton for a lighter carpet. The pile can be more or less shaved or long, depending on the origin and the preferences of the craftswoman.
In any case, our knotted rugs are wonderfully soft.

Unique pieces of rare beauty, these extraordinary modern wool rugs are born from the creativity of each individual artisan. To understand the inestimable value of these artifacts, we must think of processes that require skills passed down through generations. Knowing natural sheep wool, knowing how to card it, applying extremely complex finishing and washing processes: these are just some of the skills that are part of an intangible cultural heritage to be preserved.
This page offers a carefully selected and constantly evolving selection. You may find rugs made of braided wool from Siroua, a sheep that lives only in the Atlas Mountains in the Taznakht area. Lovers of rustic-chic style will fall in love with the Boujaad, coarse wool rugs with a natural look, with high or short pile. Those looking for a multi-colored wool rug with a super creative design will get lost in the colorful patterns of the Azilal. While minimalists and fans of the Nordic trend will find the perfect accessory in the white wool Beni Ourain rugs with the iconic black diamonds. Connoisseurs of this versatile material will immediately recognize the soft and luxurious wool of the Beni Mrirt, which is subjected to still-secret washing procedures to make it soft and shiny.
Who do we recommend them to? To lovers of a welcoming home, for a comfortable living room and for that hygge touch that is so much like a mountain chalet. In the bedroom as a bedside rug, to immerse yourself upon awakening, barefoot, in the comfortable embrace of a soft, long-haired rug. To let the little ones crawl in the warmth and play comfortably in the bedroom or living room.
