Description
The west elm interpretation of a traditional Moroccan Berber, this stunning hand-knotted Souk Rug is handcrafted of 100% wool. As a Fair Trade Certified product, it supports better living and working conditions-artisans earn a premium for each rug made, empowering them to collectively invest in their surrounding communities. Soft and elegant underfoot, it's perfect for a bedroom or living room. We recommend to help protect your rug from moving and colour transfer. Shedding is a natural characteristic of wool, particularly on new rugs, but this will reduce over time and will not affect your rug's performance, vacuum occasionally. Use suction only, rotating brushes may damage your rug. Blot spills with a clean dry cloth, do not rub, do not use detergent. Specialist cleaning recommended.
Our Stylist Says
I love this round rug for adding softness and texture to a wide range of interiors. Its neutral tones make it versatile, working well in both contemporary and boho spaces, as well as more minimal or Scandinavian aesthetics. The geometric pattern introduces visual interest without overwhelming the room. Practical styling tips include layering it over a larger flat-weave rug in larger open-plan areas, or using it to anchor a seating arrangement in a cosy corner. Its size makes it perfect for defining small dining areas or adding a focal point in a living room. Keep it in good condition by regular vacuuming and rotating to prevent uneven wear, especially in high-traffic spaces.

A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
