SAFAVIEH Moroccan Tassel Shag Square Rug 6ft 7in - Plush Ivory

Our review of the SAFAVIEH Moroccan Tassel Shag Collection square rug finds it best for homeowners seeking a soft, textured floor covering that adds a rustic-chic touch to busy rooms. The single biggest reason to buy is the 2-inch pile, which delivers a notably plush feel underfoot while still standing up to high-traffic areas like dining rooms, kitchens, and bedrooms. The braided fringe and diamond motifs give it an Old World look that translates easily into modern interiors, and the machine-woven synthetic yarns promise year-after-year resilience.

Key Features

• 2-inch pile height: Provides cushioned softness that makes the rug comfortable to stand on for extended periods and adds visible thickness to a room.
• Trendy Moroccan design: Streaming diamond patterns and braided fringe bring a nomadic motif that enhances both rustic and contemporary decor schemes.
• Machine-woven construction: Made from soft, strong synthetic yarns to maintain texture and appearance through regular use.
• Easy maintenance: Regular vacuuming without a beater bar and spot blotting with mild detergent keep the rug looking fresh with minimal effort.
• Durable for high-traffic: The dense shag and construction are suited to entryways, living areas, and dining rooms that see frequent foot traffic.

Who It's For

This rug is ideal for people who want a comfortable, statement floor covering that works across multiple rooms - from a bedroom or nursery to a busy dining area. It suits households wanting the look of vintage Moroccan motifs without the maintenance of natural fibers, and those who appreciate a thick, tactile rug underfoot.

It may be less suitable for someone who needs an ultra-low pile rug for rolling office chairs, or for those extremely sensitive to initial shipping odors, since some customers report a smell that may dissipate with airing. Also expect slight size variation because rug sizes may vary slightly by production.
