Introducing the Berber Rugs
Timeless Moroccan Art Woven Through Generations
The Berber carpet, also called Taṛakna or Taẓerbit depending on the region, is a true symbol of Moroccan culture. Its origins go back to the Paleolithic era. For centuries, women and young girls have preserved these weaving traditions on the same types of looms. Each pattern, motif, and ornament carries deep meaning, inspired by religion, nature, beliefs, and the imagination of Berber culture. These rugs are more than decorations they are living stories passed from mother to daughter, preserving generations of heritage.
The History of Berber Rugs
Our Heritage – From Ancient Traditions to Modern Homes
Berber House Rugs are unique, handcrafted pieces made for everyday use and special occasions. Traditionally made of high-quality wool, they were often part of wedding dowries and carefully stored by families. Despite challenges from the settlement of nomadic tribes, Berber weaving is experiencing a revival today. Each rug showcases the skill, creativity, and artistry of nomadic artisans, bringing warmth, durability, and a piece of Moroccan culture into modern homes.
