Handmade Moroccan Carpet, Vintage Mid-Century 5x11 feet Rug Zemmour rugs are handwoven in the city of Zemmour, which is a fertile territory located in the Northwest of Morocco, somewhere between Meknes & Rabat. What characterizes the rug from the At Zemmour tribe is the usage of a different set of geometric motifs on a natural colored area that use only a few main colors. The weavers use geometric motifs to decorate their rugs, but most importantly, they use this art as a form of expression of their own stories, hopes, secrets & dreams that they cannot express verbally. Every single motif has a symbolic significance & tells a story of its own. There are ten different tribes in the Zemmours. The name of Zemmours comes from the Berber word Azemmur, which means olive. Before settling in their current location in northwestern Morocco, they were originally nomadic or semi-nomadic & pastoral tribes moving on the low plateaus to the north & west of the Middle Atlas Mountains, suitable for livestock & agriculture.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS: The rug should be shaken outside, at least once a week, until all dirt has been removed. If shaking the rug outside is impractical, it can be vacuumed, preferably with a hand held vacuum, slowly from side-to-side so as not to damage the fibres. Shaking & vacuuming on a regular basis should be sufficient to keep the rug clean during normal use. CUSTOM ORDER: We make custom rugs based on your own choice for the design, size & colors. It takes generally 4-5 weeks to the weavers to produce your newly made rug. WHOLESALE: From 3 rugs or more, we offer on all our products wholesale prices (including poufs, blankets & pillows).
