Hand-woven purple margoum rug in natural wool

The margoum rug is also unique in that it is made according to the oldest traditions regarding its weaving methods: the background of the margoum is woven like a kilim, and the patterns are embroidered using knots, like a classic rug, but on the reverse side. The margoum therefore has no hair but a smooth, relief-like appearance. On its back, the woolen return threads testify to the artisanal authenticity of this handmade rug. The margoum is based on the diamond design in arabic "regma", the word "mergoum" comes from here.
