How do I choose the right size and shape?

Size it to the furniture, not the floor: at least 18 in shows beyond the sides and foot of a bed, and under a dining table it runs 24 in (60 cm) past the edge. Ourika comes in three shapes, Classic, Round and Runner, in a standard size or a custom size priced as you type. The size guide has plans room by room.

Will I hear from you while it's made?

We write at every stage: the order confirmation, the day knotting begins, the day your rug is finished, and tracking when it ships.

Does Ourika have a repeating pattern?

No, it is abstract. Rounded bands stack across the rug like layered ground, with a heavier ridge through the middle and weightier forms toward the bottom.

Is Ourika hand-knotted or tufted?

Hand-knotted, row by row, in 100% natural wool; nothing is tufted or glued to a backing.

Where does Ourika work best?

This rug is at its best in a kids room, where its color gives the room a lift. Short or medium pile keeps blocks and toy cars upright. It also suits a dining room.

Which pile suits a painterly design like Ourika?

Medium 0.8 in (2 cm) or shag 1.2 in (3 cm) suit it well, because softened edges help the bands blend like layered color. Short 0.4 in (1 cm) pile keeps each band line and the heavier forms more defined. In shag the weightier forms stay as anchors while the lighter bands merge.

How do I care for Ourika, and will it shed?

Vacuum with suction only, no beater bar, and blot spills at once with cool water from the edge inward; never rub. New wool sheds loose fiber for its first weeks, then settles. Turn the rug now and then so sun and wear spread evenly. The care guide covers stains.

Can I change the colors of Ourika?

Yes, any color on the rug can change. Tap it, pick one of our 30 wool shades, and the AI preview updates at once; your approved preview is what the weavers knot. The price is 10% above the size's price, with one extra week of production.

About this rug

A valley like the Ourika above Marrakech: a river down the middle, hills rising ridge on ridge behind. This abstract Boujaad rug stacks those bands across your floor, light above, weighted below. Weavers once stacked hills like these from memory. Zarbish makes it today.

No band has a hard edge: one tone runs into the next over a few knots, so the boundaries look brushed rather than cut. The pile is long enough to lie over, and it shades differently when it is combed one way or the other.
