Doris Leslie Blau is dedicated to exploring the venerable and magical realm of rugs to provide only top-notch floor coverings that meet the needs of contemporary consumers in every aspect. We combine the centuries-old weaving tradition with the latest trends in order for every new or custom rug that comes from us to be veritably timeless.

The Moroccan flat weave before your eyes was made in accordance with the ancient and venerable Moroccan craft. Carefully hand-woven of the finest wool by a skilled artisan, the modern rug represents excellent quality – it is durable, resilient and relatively light. Provided minimum amount of care, it will serve its owners for generations without any signs of wear.

Moreover, the traditional-inspired rug carries a meaningful design that can easily be read by someone who knows the language of oriental rug motifs. Two popular symbols are present here – Pitrak (burdock) and Haç (cross). Both are believed to provide protection against the Evil Eye –according to the Anatolian belief the cross reduces the power of the evil glance by dividing it into four pieces, while burdock can conceal you under its big leaves and sticks its burry flowers, which are considered to bring luck, on the by-passers. Rendered in beige and dark brown and finished with a lovely fringe, this modern Moroccan flat weave will introduce a great deal of tribal charm to any contemporary interior.

Moroccan rugs, in their variety of textures, colors, and designs have stood the test of time. They are a classic staple in both classic and modern interiors. Our modern Moroccan rugs are handmade by artisans in small, specialized workshops, following the centuries-old tradition. They are handmade of natural undyed wool or of wool colored with natural dyes. Their designs are either of vintage tribal inspiration or traditional with an original twist, designs exclusive to Doris Leslie Blau.
