Celine
THIS RUG'S STORY:
Celine is a sweet and shiny rug from the AIt Bougamez region in Morocco. This is a region near Azilal, known for the neutral yet colorful rugs with tight knots and geometric designs. This one has a minimal and tribal feel. The hints of light pink mixed with the brown give it a feminine vibe. The size is nearly square, which is also a unique feature!
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.
