About Moroccan Rugs

Moroccan rugs have a history spanning centuries. Originally created for warmth and protection from harsh mountain climates, they are now cherished worldwide as luxurious home décor. The art of weaving is passed down through generations, maintaining a thousand-year-old tradition filled with meaning and symbolism.

Each region of Morocco carries its own artistic language—reflected through unique motifs, folklore-inspired symbols, and weaving techniques.
In rural Berber communities, rugs are still handmade by women, forming an important source of income for local families. Authentic vintage pieces differ from modern reproductions in their craftsmanship, depth of color, and cultural authenticity.

About This Rug

Lovingly nicknamed “DUST”—inspired by the natural tones seen on its backside—this exceptional vintage rug is a rare find from the Zayan tribe. Its deep, rich indigo hues are characteristic of early mid-century Moroccan textiles, a color that is now extremely difficult to find in modern rugs.

This one-of-a-kind piece is in very good vintage condition, retaining its original wool texture, character, and tribal charm. With its warm palette and handwoven authenticity, it serves as both a functional floor covering and a collectible piece of Moroccan history.

Please Note

Because this rug is handmade, slight variations in weaving, pattern, or shape may occur. All vintage pieces have lived a previous life, so minor wear, discoloration, or small repairs are normal and add to the rug’s authenticity and unique character. Some worn areas or holes have been intentionally left unrepaired to preserve the integrity of the original artwork.
