This rug in dusky pink combines traditional craftsmanship with timeless elegance. A knot density of approx. 90,000 knots per m² makes the painstaking workmanship visible – right down to the fine execution of the details. At 300 × 215 cm, it is in its element as a large living room rug. It comes into its own just as well in the dining room beneath a table for six to eight people. This one-of-a-kind piece brings individual character to the room and holds its value far beyond short-lived trends.

Origin
The pattern of this Oriental rug takes its cue from classic Persian rug designs. This rug was knotted in Morocco.In Europe, Morocco is known above all for its hard-wearing Berber rugs. In fact, though, knotting classic Oriental rug patterns has just as long a tradition in Morocco.
Material
The pile of this Moroccan Oriental rug was hand-knotted from high-quality new wool. New wool is obtained by gently shearing sheep. New wool is a renewable, natural raw material with a number of impressive properties: thanks to the natural lanolin in the wool, the surface repels droplets of water and is therefore naturally proofed against dirt. Wool also offers excellent thermal insulation, helps regulate the indoor climate and dampens sound.The weft and warp threads of this Moroccan Oriental rug are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and pliable, which makes it particularly well suited to a hard-wearing foundation weave.
Condition
This Moroccan Oriental rug has had admirers before you. It was knotted around 1970. We have cleaned it thoroughly and restored it with care. Despite its age, it is therefore in very good condition.
A note on the photos
Child labour? No thanks.
The rug trade against child labour: Children belong in school, not at a knotting or weaving loom. For us it therefore goes without saying that we only offer rugs made under fair conditions and without child labour. We place particular importance on good working conditions and tolerate no child labour at our producers.
We are proud to be a member of the Care & Fair campaign against child labour.
The industry-wide campaign CARE & FAIR - the rug trade against child labour was founded in 1994. The initiative has made it its mission to fight the excesses of illegal child labour in the knotting countries and, at the same time, to improve the overall situation of rug knotters and their families in the knotting regions of India, Nepal and Pakistan.
Our goals:
- Ending illegal child labour in India and Pakistan.
- Creating better living conditions for knotters' families.
- Socially responsible production. We only accept goods that have been made under fair conditions. Working with our producers as partners, we want to make clear to them that taking on social responsibility benefits everyone.
Together with Care & Fair we currently support 10 schools, 6 adult education centres and 3 day clinics in India and Pakistan.
