This rug was woven by Keltouma.
Keltouma and her daughter Soukina lead this group of 25 artisans from a Village just outside Beni M’rirt, in the Middle Atlas Mountains. Founded in the early 2000s, the collective makes medium to high hand-knot rugs, a style named after the region. Traditional rugs from this region use a thick knotting technique, which makes the rugs feel extra plush.
This rug is made up of 100% undyed sheep's wool.
This style has been modernized by incorporating unique recessed Flatweave lines which creates a mesmerizing dimension to the rug.
It feels just as cozy, plush and soft as it looks.
