Authentic Moroccan wool rugs are crafted from high-quality natural materials. They are built to last, and their ease of maintenance is unmatched.

Wool repels dirt and moisture

The untreated wool used in Moroccan rugs naturally repels dirt, liquids, and odors thanks to the natural oils in the fibers. It does not become statically charged or attract dust, and it doesn’t shed excessively. These properties make Moroccan wool rugs a great fit even for homes with children or pets.

Air out or vacuum without a brush

To refresh the rug, air it out in dry weather in the shade. You can also vacuum it on low power without a rotating brush. Avoid strong vacuuming, as it may wear down the fibers over time. A good alternative is to flip the rug over and vacuum the floor beneath to remove dust and debris.

Clean stains with genuine Marseille soap

Blot fresh stains immediately with paper towels. For dried stains, use fragrance-free Marseille soap, which contains fat and will not strip the wool’s natural oils. This helps preserve the rug’s soft sheen and healthy appearance. Always use authentic, unscented Marseille soap.

Avoid water washing – use a professional when needed

The plant-based dyes used in the wool yarns can be sensitive to water. If your rug clearly needs a full wash, we recommend using a professional cleaner that specializes in Berber rugs.

Store in a dry and stable environment

If the rug is not in use, roll it gently and wrap it in a breathable fabric such as cotton. Wool fibers can react to humidity and temperature changes, so it’s important to store the rug in a dry, well-ventilated space.

Marmoucha rugs originate from the Middle Atlas region of Morocco. They are often black and white in appearance, with subtle accents of red or orange used for contrast.

A common design element is the so-called double diamond pattern, where two diamonds are nested inside one another. These may be filled with colorful details that add richness and variation to the otherwise minimalist design.

Marmoucha rugs are typically knotted using symmetrical knots, although traditional Berber knots are also occasionally used.
