Tehlit, meaning: "you are beautiful".
This beautiful kilim/hanbel is hand knotted over the course of a year. Slowly tiny bits everyday. Hafifa used the finest wool to weave this rug. This wool is from the neck area of the sheep, which is just a tin bit and the sheep are sheared once a year in may when it starts to get very hot in Morocco. The color comes from saffron flowers and madder roots.
You know what I love about this rug? The lower left corner runs a bit outward. It reminds me that beauty isn’t about perfection. So if you love this rug, love the beauty of nature, then please als embrace and love yourself fully. I hope this rug will be a daily reminder of that.

F.A.Q.
Will my rug be exactly as shown in the pictures?
No. Each phone/computer has different screen settings so the colors are likely to look not the exact same.
We think Moroccan rugs are more beautiful than shown on a monitor/display.
Natural wool has an intriguing way to dance in with the sun light and mesmerize you every time. It's beauty that can't be captured.
Each rug is made entirely by hand so there will always be variations in pattern and color, but we strive to accurately capture the detail and color so you know what you are getting.
How do I take care of my rug?
We recommend unpacking the rug once it’s delivered. This will help minimize any creases or marks from the rug being rolled up. The rug will need to settle for a few days before any crease is removed from the shipping process.
Washing and spot cleaning
To extend the life of your rug, have it professionally washed once a year. In Morocco, the families shake the rugs outside weekly to clean them. This is the traditional and easy way you can replicate in your own home.
If you ever need to spot clean your rug, do so as soon as possible with lukewarm water and a little natural soap. If the stains are stubborn, we recommend using professional cleaning service.
Vacuum cleaning
Romaisas rugs are made from 100% natural wool fibers, this means, they will shed. Regular vacuuming of your rug at home in the first couple of weeks will help reduce shedding and eliminate it completely over time. Vacuum your rug in a side-topside motion to protect its fibers.
Feel free to flip the rug and vacuum the reverse side to get anything that is deep in the piles as well.
Rotating your rug
In our homes, sunlight can effect the coloring on fabrics and furniture, including rugs. We recommend you to rotate your rug every 3 months to help maintain an even shade.
Do I pay import taxes?
Import taxes may apply for those customers who reside outside the European Union or the United States.
Do I need an anti-slip mat?
We recommend an anti-slip underlay for all our flat weave rugs.
