FAQs – Moroccan Rugs | Orientalist Home
Q1. What makes Moroccan rugs unique?
A: Moroccan rugs are celebrated for their thick, plush wool, organic geometric patterns, and earthy color palettes. Each rug is handwoven by skilled artisans, often inspired by desert landscapes and tribal symbolism, making every piece an authentic rug with story and soul.
Q2. Are Moroccan rugs handmade?
A: Yes. Every Moroccan rug we offer at Orientalist Home is carefully handwoven by master artisans using traditional weaving techniques passed down through generations. No two rugs are identical — that’s what makes each piece truly authentic.
Q3. What materials are used in Moroccan rugs?
A: Traditionally, Moroccan rugs are crafted from 100% natural wool, sourced from local sheep in tribal regions. The wool is known for being soft, durable, and naturally stain-resistant, ideal for busy, lived-in homes.
Q4. Are Moroccan rugs durable?
A: Absolutely. With proper care, authentic Moroccan rugs can last decades. Their thick wool fibers are resilient, making them perfect for high-traffic areas like living rooms, bedrooms, or family spaces.
Q5. Do Moroccan rugs shed?
A: Natural wool rugs may shed lightly at first — this is completely normal. Shedding reduces over time as the fibers settle. Regular vacuuming (without a beater brush) will help.
