Berber authenticity at the heart of a vibrant design

Each Moroccan rugs are handmade by women weavers in villages in the Middle Atlas. They work for several weeks on traditional looms. Each pattern is designed and knotted without prior drawing, in complete creative freedom. It is this spontaneity that makes these rugs so unique. No model is reproduced identically. The weaving blends unbleached sheep wool with natural dyes, for a result that is both vibrant and environmentally friendly.

The geometric patterns, broken lines, and diamonds found on the colorful Azilal rug aren't just decorative. They symbolize femininity, nature, fertility, and protection. These symbols have been passed down orally for generations. Each rug thus becomes a reflection of a collective memory and precious know-how.

A decorative but also functional piece

Far from being reserved for museum interiors, the Berber rug is suitable for everyday use. It can be placed in a busy living room, a child's bedroom, or a cozy office. Its dense wool is highly resistant to wear, does not crush, and retains its shape. It is also compatible with heated floors, as the wool allows warm air to circulate without trapping it. It is therefore a comfortable ally in both winter and summer.

For maintenance, simply vacuum it without a rotating brush once a week, or shake it outside. Every two years, professional cleaning is recommended to regenerate the wool fibers. This light treatment is enough to maintain its shine, fluffiness, and thermal properties. You will find our maintenance tips directly on the BERB website , to extend the life of your rug effortlessly.
