Who Has the Best Moroccan Rugs?

One of the biggest mistakes people have about Moroccan rugs is that there are only a few types of Moroccan rugs. In reality, there are dozens, if not hundreds! Each of the Amazigh (Berber) tribes of Morocco make their own style of rugs and there are 40 different tribes there. Inside the tribes, there can be more than one style that is also made.

A common mechanism is to make a rug seem custom because it’s a “Berber” type rug. The truth is all authentic Moroccan rugs are Berber rugs. They are made by the Berber tribe of Morocco. Historically they are made for practical use – and are still made for this use today. The different styles might vary depending on where the tribe lives. To give an example, tribes in High Atlas , where the weather is quite cold, will have different rug needs than other nomadic tribes in other regions.
