  • Curator's Notes

    Motifs
    • Moroccan rugs don’t come with a key. As with any painting or poem, their motifs have many subjective interpretations. Originally made for personal use, these rugs took months to weave, documenting a shifting tide of events and emotions in the weaver’s life
    • A central medallion anchors the motif to a center focal point from which the design blooms out and is balanced by complementary design elements
    • A handsome, hand-braided fringe woven from threads of the loom
    Region of Origin

    Rabat, founded in the 12th century, became Morocco’s capital after the French invaded in 1912. Rugs woven here, as in most Moroccan cities, are more reminiscent of Turkish rugs in their design and weaving technique, often featuring a central medallion.

    Material Details

    Wool, a staple in Moroccan rug design, was considered almost sacred to the Amazigh (Berber) people, whose nomadic lifestyle included sheep and goat herding. In addition to being available, wool is durable, long-lasting, and soft—so it’s super comfy to walk and relax on. In this piece, the wool pile is knotted onto a wool foundation, adding body and helping it hug the floor.

    Moroccan wool is locally sourced and produces a thick, strong pile that feels soft underfoot. Having stood the test of time, this hand-processed wool has reacted to its various environments, acquiring an untamed, nubby look and feel.
