Black and white striped rug – A clean statement with Moroccan roots
Tazarzit is a handmade black and white striped rug inspired by the timeless geometry found in Moroccan design. Its name comes from the Amazigh word meaning “lines,” a nod to its simple yet striking horizontal pattern. Crafted in the heart of the Middle Atlas Mountains, this Beni Mrirt rug is made entirely from natural wool, woven by skilled hands using traditional looms.
The rug features evenly spaced black stripes on a soft, creamy white base. The pattern is clean, deliberate, and calming. This modern interpretation of a Moroccan rug makes Tazarzit the perfect addition to minimalist, Scandinavian, boho, or contemporary interiors.
The contrast of black and white gives this striped rug visual strength, while the natural wool and subtle variations in line thickness add warmth and personality. It’s bold enough to define a space, yet subtle enough to blend with your existing furniture and décor.
A striped rug that brings rhythm and softness to your space
Tazarzit’s layout is built on balance. The spacing of the lines creates a sense of order and repetition that feels peaceful, not rigid. This rhythmic pattern reflects traditional Berber symbolism, where lines often represent rivers, paths, or harmony in life.
The creamy wool base keeps the rug light and versatile. It softens the black detailing and brings a natural glow to the surface. Whether you’re placing it in a living room, bedroom, hallway, or studio, the rug adapts easily to its surroundings.
Because each rug is woven by hand, no two are ever exactly the same. Slight shifts in the weave, line width, or texture reflect the artisan’s hand, making every Tazarzit rug a unique piece with its own story.
A handmade Moroccan rug with durability and soul
Woven in the Beni Mrirt tradition, Tazarzit is not just beautiful — it’s built to last. The thick, high-quality wool pile is soft underfoot and highly durable, ideal for everyday use in busy households.
The wool is sourced from local sheep in the Middle Atlas, cleaned and carded by hand, and dyed using traditional methods without harsh chemicals. From raw material to finished rug, every step in the process reflects care, sustainability, and heritage.
This type of Moroccan rug takes weeks to complete and involves generations of weaving knowledge. Choosing Tazarzit means choosing authenticity — a handmade rug that’s ethical, eco-conscious, and full of character.
The beauty of a black and white striped rug with meaning
Tazarzit is more than just a stylish striped rug. It carries within it centuries of craftsmanship, Amazigh symbolism, and cultural memory. The name itself honors the visual language of Morocco’s highlands — a world where lines are never just decoration, but a form of storytelling.
Its minimalist design makes it easy to style, whether you’re going for a clean modern look or layering textures in a boho-chic home. It works well with wood, leather, plants, or bold accent colors.
If you’re looking for a rug that offers quiet impact, comfort, and a deep sense of origin, Tazarzit is the perfect choice. It’s modern yet timeless — rooted in tradition, yet made for today’s living.
