THIS RUG'S STORY:
This stunning Azilal was actually found near Boujad. It's a unique rug for this tribe and features an incredible design. I've never come across anything quite like it! Azilal rugs typically have creamy bases and sometimes bring in bold colors. This one is so interesting with the combination of diamonds and a zig zag design that runs through the length of the rug.
ABOUT MOROCCAN RUGS:
Each vintage Moroccan rug is hand woven and knotted by Berber women of the tribal region specified. This level of craftsmanship can take up to weeks or months to complete a single rug. Weaving techniques have been passed down through the generations. The patterns, designs, and colors in each rug vary with each rug, weaver, and tribe – so each piece is truly a unique work of art and 2 pieces will never be the same. Often these rugs have been handed down through the families who created them, and have been uncovered from the mountain and rural areas of Morocco.
