Weaving Association in Southern Morocco

For almost a decade, we have been sourcing a variety of rugs from our dear friends at the Weaving Association in Southern Morocco. Over the years, we have really enjoyed our relationship with this association, allowing us to work directly with them on various styles of rugs and seeing them come to life as the artisans (mostly women) weave through each piece. From tapestry-style rugs, to Boucherouite, and map rugs - here’s a little more about some of their fabulous techniques that we keep falling in love with.
