Azilal Moroccan Berber rug

Azilal rugs are made mainly from natural sheep's wool, sometimes mixed with cotton. The wool, often left in its natural ivory or cream color, serves as a backdrop against which all the creativity of the weavers is expressed. The patterns, traced with remarkable artistic freedom, include geometric shapes, sinuous lines, and symbols from berber culture and daily life. The colors used in azilal rugs are vibrant and varied. They typically include deep reds, vibrant blues, bright greens, and vibrant yellows. These shades are obtained using natural dyes, which adds an ecological dimension to these works. Each azilal rug is a unique piece, telling a personal or cultural story through its patterns and colors. Weavers draw inspiration from their surroundings, experiences and traditions to create designs that are both contemporary and rooted in ancestral heritage.
