Moroccan bohemian carpet, large tufted checkerboard, embroidered cream wool, natural carpet

This carpet is an artisanal creation of Berber women, who have always specialized in this type of work. Once the mowing is done, they take care of everything, from weaving the wool to making the carpet in a loom at home or in a cooperative. Description : - Length: 260cm - Width: 150cm - Color: available in 2 colors Anthracite and cream white - Material: 100% sheep wool This bohemian rug comes from Sidi Moktar in Morocco, a picturesque little town off the beaten track between Marrakech "the pearl of the South" and Essaouira, "the pearl of the Atlantic"... Touria, the president of the local women's cooperative , welcomed us into the heart of their workshop. It is an artisanal realization of the Berber women of Morocco, specialized since the dawn of time in this type of work. Once the shearing is done, they take care of everything, from weaving the wool, to making the carpet in a loom at home or in a cooperative. It takes a little over a month to make this rug. Through it, you offer a story, that of a real ancestral know-how transmitted from generation to generation. Wool is a noble material par excellence and this natural textile fiber is durable, insulating, breathable and recyclable. We are proud to work in a short circuit with artisans. Collaborating directly with women's cooperatives allows them to earn more than going through a wholesaler. Touria, the president of the cooperative and her team thus earn 33% of the displayed price. Do not panic if your carpet loses its hair for about 15 days, it is completely normal, it is woolen threads stuck during weaving. We recommend maintenance with a brush broom to remove dirt. Do not hesitate to shake it to remove the dust. In case of stain, rub with water and Marseille soap as soon as possible, it's ecological and voila!
