What is a Berber rug?
A Berber rug is a handcrafted item made in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, on traditional looms. They are woven by Berber women using age-old techniques passed down from generation to generation.
An ethical and sustainable rug
A Berber handcrafted rug is made of knotted natural wool, crafted in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco by women. Woven from virgin sheep's wool on traditional looms, these rugs are made using time-honored techniques passed down through generations. They are authentic rugs, full of character; each rug is a work of art and a testament to the richness of Berber culture. The quality of the materials used makes them durable decorative objects. It takes approximately three months to weave a Berber rug.
An infinite number of shapes and colors
Moroccan Berber rugs are distinguished by the richness of their geometric patterns and their varied colors. The traditional and symbolic motifs of Berber culture each have their own meaning. Each rug tells a story, linked to nature, spirituality, fertility, and daily life, the theme of which is chosen by the woman who weaves it according to her own desires. The colors, traditionally obtained using natural pigments, offer a fascinating palette: from shades of ecru, beige, and off-white to vibrant colors like red, orange, terracotta, and pink, or more muted tones such as black and brown. Today, the geometric patterns are more varied: diamonds, polka dots, free-form designs, and minimalist styles, as are the contemporary colors: mint, Majorelle blue, and pastels.
