SOUK in the CITY
CASA Striped Hayk | 150 x 90/80 cm
A little wild, wonderfully colourful and anything but perfectly straight.
Meet CASA, a vibrant Moroccan striped hayk that certainly doesn’t believe in playing by the rules.
Bright pink, grass green, cobalt blue, purple, sunny yellow, deep red and touches of navy and cream come together in a wonderfully unexpected mix of stripes. Some are wide and bold, others narrow and delicate. And just when you think you’ve figured out the pattern, the colours change direction again.
But what really makes CASA stand out is its wonderfully irregular character.
The weave shifts between thicker and finer sections, the stripes ripple rather than run perfectly straight, and the edges have a noticeably uneven shape. You’ll find little tufts, loose threads, variations in texture and all those tiny details that make traditionally woven Moroccan textiles so interesting.
Perfectly imperfect? This one takes it to another level.
CASA isn’t a neat, factory-made rectangle. It’s a lively piece of Moroccan textile, full of colour, movement and personality. And that’s exactly why we selected it.
Use it as a decorative textile over a sofa, at the foot of a bed, draped over a chair or simply displayed somewhere its colours can do their thing. It works beautifully alongside contemporary furniture, natural materials, vintage finds and other colourful textiles.
Personally sourced in Marrakech and handpicked for its striking colour combinations, expressive weaving and unapologetically irregular appearance.

GOOD TO KNOW
CASA has a particularly irregular shape and weave, even compared to other traditional Moroccan hayks.
The edges are not perfectly straight, the stripes may appear wavy and the textile does not lie as a perfectly even rectangle. Variations in yarn thickness, loose threads and small weaving irregularities are all part of its original character.
Please take a good look at the photographs to appreciate the actual shape, texture and finishing of this unique piece.
The exact fibre composition has not been confirmed. Gentle handling and professional textile cleaning are recommended.
One piece. Plenty of colour. And absolutely no straight lines required.
