Emerald Green Border Wool Rug — Handwoven Mrirt Geometric

A Handwoven Emerald Green Border Wool Rug with Geometric Precision This emerald green border wool rug brings a bold geometric rhythm to any room. Handwoven in the Mrirt tradition, it pairs squares of emerald green and natural cream in a structured border pattern — a composition that reads as both heritage textile and contemporary graphic design. The emerald and cream squares create a framework that is as versatile as it is striking, whether anchoring a living room seating area or defining a bedroom reading corner. Each rug is woven to order — please allow approximately 30 days for production before shipping. Rug Specifications Style: Mrirt — a wool handwoven tradition from the Atlas region, known for its structured geometric patterns Material: Wool Dye: Natural/Vegetable dyes, giving the emerald green its depth and the cream its warm, undyed character Pile height: Medium — substantial underfoot without overwhelming low-profile furniture Backing: No backing (bare weave) — the natural reverse of the handwoven construction Available sizes: 3′3″ × 6′7″ (1 × 2 m), 3′3″ × 9′10″ (1 × 3 m), 4′11″ × 6′7″ (1.5 × 2 m), 6′7″ × 9′10″ (2 × 3 m), 9′10″ × 13′1″ (3 × 4 m) Design: Geometric border of alternating emerald green and cream squares Natural variation: Slight colour differences between dye lots are inherent to naturally dyed wool — each rug carries subtle, one-of-a-kind shifts Woven in the Atlas Mountains Tradition This rug is handwoven by the Tiftilin weavers of the Middle Atlas — Amazigh women who carry forward weaving knowledge passed from mother to daughter in the cedar-forested highlands south of Fès. Mrirt rugs are distinguished by their wool-on-wool construction and precisely articulated geometric borders, a hallmark of Atlas-region Amazigh weaving that has been continuously practiced for generations. Each rug is made to order on a vertical loom, a process that requires weeks of focused work and produces a floor covering designed to last for decades. Care & Longevity Wool rugs reward simple, consistent care. Vacuum weekly on the lowest suction setting without a beater bar, rotate the rug every six months to even out wear, and spot-clean only with cold water and mild soap. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight, which can shift naturally dyed colours over time. For detailed instructions, visit our Moroccan wool rug care guide. Styling & Trade The emerald green and cream border pattern works across interior styles — from minimalist and Scandinavian to layered bohemian. Pair this rug with warm wood furniture for a grounded feel, or let it contrast against lighter flooring for maximum graphic impact.

No. This rug has a bare-weave reverse — no backing material; the underside shows the structural knots and foundation threads. It is designed to be placed pile-side up only. This is standard for hand-knotted Mrirt construction. A rug pad is recommended to keep the bare reverse from slipping on smooth floors and to add cushioning underfoot. Is this rug suitable for high-traffic areas? The medium pile height handles living rooms and dining areas with regular foot traffic well. For a high-traffic hallway or entryway, rotate the rug every three to four months to distribute wear evenly across the pile. A non-slip rug pad also reduces surface abrasion from the floor beneath, extending pile life noticeably in busier spots. How is a Mrirt rug different from a Beni Ourain rug? Both are handwoven in Morocco’s Atlas Mountains from natural wool, but their visual language differs. Beni Ourain rugs feature an open off-white field with scattered, loosely geometric diamond or line motifs in dark charcoal. Mrirt rugs are more architecturally composed: a defined border frames a structured interior grid of geometric forms, often in bolder colours. Mrirt designs tend toward precision and symmetry; Beni Ourain toward organic, sparse abstraction.
