Tessellate Berber Rug
Tessellate Berber Rug
Soft Geometry
At once structured and expressive, this handwoven Moroccan rug reimagines the grid—not as a rigid system, but as a canvas for depth, variation, and quiet rhythm. An irregular grid of parallel lines forms a grounding, unique backdrop for your space—at home in both minimal and richly layered interiors.
Materials
Moroccan Wool Pile
Moroccan wool is sourced from active weaving communities—not industrial farms—where sheep graze at high altitudes and are sheared just once a year. This slower cycle produces longer, stronger fibres that shed far less than wool from hotter, lowland regions. Breeds like Sardi and Beni Guil yield wool with naturally high lanolin content, giving it a soft, springy loft that create the plush piles Moroccan rugs are known for.
Cotton Foundation
A strong rug needs a strong base. That’s why we use cotton—not wool—for the foundation. Cotton offers the highest tensile strength, allowing it to anchor a thick wool pile without stretching, warping, or degrading over time. It keeps the rug flat, balanced, and made to last.
Design
Triple Berber Knotted
Most Moroccan rugs today are made with a tensioned false knot—quicker to weave, but prone to loosening, shedding, and distortion over time. We do it differently. Every one of our rugs is constructed using the traditional triple Berber knot: a time-intensive technique that uses more wool and creates a deep, plush pile anchored to a secure foundation. The result is a rug that’s not only softer underfoot, but built to last for generations.
Handwoven in Khenifra, Morocco
Each rug is woven by hand in the High Atlas Mountains, using locally sourced wool and age-old techniques passed down through generations.
Crafted by women in active weaving cooperatives, these rugs support both cultural preservation and local livelihoods. The materials are native, the methods low-impact, and the process deeply rooted in place—making each piece as sustainable as it is meaningful.
