Hand-woven margoum hallway rug

The margoum carpet is also special in that it is made according to the oldest traditions regarding its weaving methods: the bottom of the margoum is woven like on a kilim, and the patterns are embroidered using knots, like on a classic carpet, but on the reverse side. The margoum therefore has no hair but a smooth appearance with reliefs. On its back side, the wool return threads testify to the artisanal authenticity of this handmade carpet. The margoum is based on the design of the diamond in arabic "regma", the word "mergoum" comes from here. However, margoum is originally from the berbers, and the diamonds symbolize fertility. There are three main types of patterns: a large number of small diamonds, medium diamonds or large central diamonds. Our handmade carpets are all checked by the quality department of the national office of crafts. A certificate of authenticity accompanies each piece.
