Story Behind the Art: Rooted in the nomadic heritage of the Berber tribes of Morocco, these rugs embody centuries of cultural storytelling. Crafted to withstand the cold climates of the Atlas Mountains, traditional Moroccan rugs feature thick, plush wool piles that served as sleeping mats and protective coverings. Unlike ornate oriental rugs, Moroccan designs embrace simplicity — bold geometrics, primitive symbols, and abstract motifs representing daily life and spirituality. Their introduction to Western design came in the 1930s when modernist architects like Le Corbusier and Charles and Ray Eames used them to soften minimalist interiors. Today, Moroccan tribal rugs, also woven in India and Pakistan, continue to inspire with their bohemian textures, neutral tones, and effortless blend of comfort and artistry.
