THIS RUG'S STORY:
When I saw this cute little rug, I had to have her! It's rare to come across Moroccan rugs this small. This one comes in around 2.5 x 3.5 feet, and was likely used as a saddle cover or sack. I love how the colors used change throughout the length of the rug. I thought she would be a great fit for a casual kitchen or bath. Those soft and muted colors could complement nearly any style home!
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.
