Moroccan rugs

Moroccan rugs

are the traditionally hand-woven fabrics, rugs and textiles in Morocco. Carpets have been woven by the indigenous people of Morocco since the Paleolithic era. Traditionally, Moroccan rugs have been woven by tribal peoples for utilitarian rather than decorative purposes. Twentieth-century Moroccan rugs are widely collected in the West and are almost always woven by tribes who neither seek nor possess formal artistic training.
