Great for high traffic areas - the most durable natural rug you will find!
Ahknif style rugs are made in the Taznahkt region of Morocco's middle Atlas mountains. The very detailed "Ahknif" weaving style which gets its name from traditional capes made with the same intricate work. They are also often mixed with a braiding weaving technique called Chadoui or Zanafi. This area of Morocco is one of the few places where traditional dying processes using plants and tree nuts, and also hand-spinning wool are still in use. To find a contemporary rug made using hand-spun wool and natural plant dyes is very rare as the time and cost for production is higher and there are fewer weavers who are skilled at these techniques than in the past. Please note that any creases from folding will flatten out once laid flat. A traditional clothing steamer can assist in speeding up the process.

Contemporary Moroccan rugs are new rugs handmade in the same manner as they have been made for hundreds of years. Unlike vintage rugs which were confined by traditional sizes of personal looms found within the homes of the Amazigh (Berber) women, many contemporary rugs are made outside of the home in collective community spaces where women from the village will come to work together on new pieces. This is a great opportunity for women to earn money as well as support the tradition of hand making rugs so that it continues to be passed on through generations.
