Story Behind the Art: Moroccan rugs, with origins among the nomadic Berber tribes of Morocco, were born out of harsh climates and practical necessity. Roaming the cold, windswept Atlas Mountains, these tribes crafted thick, plush-pile rugs for sleeping mats and bedding. Unlike ornate Oriental rugs, Moroccan rugs are celebrated for their geometric tribal patterns, archaic symbols, and minimalist charm. They gained international recognition in the 1930s when mid-century modern designers and architects like Le Corbusier, Frank Lloyd Wright, and Charles and Ray Eames incorporated their soft, textured surfaces to balance sleek, minimalist furniture. Today, Moroccan rugs continue to inspire designers and homeowners seeking versatile, understated elegance, and they are also skillfully produced in India and Pakistan to meet global demand.
