Crafted in the Atlas Mountains by skilled Moroccan artisans, this runner brings the heart of traditional Berber weaving into your modern space.

Every Moroccan stair runner tells a story, and this one is no exception. Created by Amazigh (Berber) weavers, this runner incorporates centuries-old symbolism, fused with a bold, contemporary palette of purples, blacks, and sandy beige tones. The result is a piece that feels timeless yet perfectly suited for today’s eclectic and modern interiors.

The runner is made from 100% natural wool, giving it a soft, durable, and resilient texture that’s ideal for high-traffic areas like staircases or narrow hallways. Unlike machine-made alternatives, each thread is hand-knotted or hand-loomed with intention, meaning no two runners are exactly alike.

This Moroccan stair runner stands out with its visually striking layout. At the top, alternating vertical blocks in lavender, black, and ivory create a checkered rhythm that transitions into intricate geometric patterns. These middle sections feature traditional motifs inspired by ancestral Berber symbols—guardians, paths, and fertility emblems—rendered in modern abstraction.

The lower portion of the runner opens up to soft tan wool fields, adorned with floating arrow shapes and diamond clusters in purples and blacks. The rich palette blends earthy warmth with contemporary contrast, making it an ideal piece for bold interiors or those seeking a subtle touch of cultural flair.

At the very base, a band of purple and black completes the visual journey, giving the piece a sense of grounded balance. This thoughtful composition makes it more than just a functional runner—it’s an evolving artwork for your floor.

Measuring in a narrow and elongated format, this piece is ideally suited for stairs, hallways, or entryways. It can be used as a full stair runner or a decorative accent rug in long, narrow spaces that need character and comfort. The pile height is medium, allowing for comfort underfoot without obstructing doors or becoming a trip hazard.

Whether you’re styling a minimal interior that needs a pop of color or designing a layered boho look, this Moroccan stair runner offers the ideal mix of texture, warmth, and narrative charm.

Each runner is made by women weavers from rural Moroccan communities, using hand-spun wool sourced locally and dyed with natural or low-impact pigments. Purchasing this rug directly supports artisan livelihoods and helps preserve endangered cultural techniques. When you choose this rug, you’re choosing slow design, fair trade, and authentic craft over mass production.

To keep your Moroccan stair runner looking its best, we recommend regular vacuuming and occasional shaking outdoors. Because of its handwoven nature, spot cleaning with gentle soap and cold water is best for small spills. With proper care, this rug will last for decades—developing even more character with age.
