{"product_id":"scarlet-bright-red-vintage-moroccan-rug-6x8","title":"Scarlet (5'10\" x 7'11\") – Authentic Vintage Moroccan Rug","description":"\u003cp\u003eRed, edge to edge — and of all the plain red rugs we have, this is the reddest. Not wine, not oxblood, not a faded cherry, but a clean, vivid crimson that holds its brightness across the whole field. There is no pattern to distract from it and no border to contain it. The colour is the entire rug, and it is a confident one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLook closely and it does move, gently — a slightly deeper band here, a lighter one there — the soft \u003cem\u003eabrash\u003c\/em\u003e of wool dyed in small batches by hand. But where some plain rugs shift dramatically, this one stays remarkably even, which is its own kind of achievement: to dye this much wool this consistently, by hand, without a mill, is not easy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pile does the rest. Deep, dense and plush, it is soft underfoot and gives the colour a richness and depth that a flat weave never could. A plain rug in a strong colour is one of the most useful things you can own — it brings warmth and confidence to a room without adding a single line of pattern to manage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe buy rugs like this because we would rather sell one honest, irregular, human-made piece than a hundred flawless machine copies. It was hand-knotted in Morocco decades ago, it has already lived a life, and there is not another one anywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRug Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e IC-2487\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5'10\" x 7'11\" (1.78m x 2.41m)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-knotted on a traditional loom in Morocco — no machine work at any stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vintage Moroccan shag rug, Beni Mguild family — plain saturated field, undecorated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColours:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vivid crimson red, with soft tonal abrash\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep, dense, plush shag\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFringe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original pale rose fringe at one end\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthenticity:\u003c\/strong\u003e A genuine one-of-a-kind vintage piece.
