Overview:

This is a small vintage Glaoui rug featuring traditional colorways of orange, pink, black and white. These rugs are made up of a mix of weaving styles, including hand-knotted sections, embroidered bands, and a flatweave background. In addition to being used for home decor, these rugs often doubled as a way to transport personal belongings for the nomadic Glaoui tribes. This is a smaller piece and would look good alongside a bed, as a wall hanging, or as an entranceway rug.

This is why we love Moroccan rugs

Moroccan rugs are heirloom pieces that age well and are embedded with the living histories of the weavers, the symbols of their tribal regions, and the markings of both traditional and modern rug designs.

Each tribal region in Morocco boasts its own weaving style- from modern black and white Beni Ourain rugs in the north, to the colorful and abstract Azilal high pile rugs, to the low pile rugs of the southern Ait Ouaouzguite region. While the process of weaving is the same throughout Morocco, the colors, textures, and patterns vary greatly from one region to the next.

The artisans we work with are skilled at creating hand-knotted, thicker pile rugs, as well as weaving geometric Moroccan kilims, boucherouite rag rugs, and double-sided handira wedding blankets. The results of this are colorful, eclectic, and bohemian rugs that are perfect for any home — from throw rugs to hallway runners to area living room rugs.
