Berber carpet azilal 80x210 cm

The azilal carpet has its origins in the province of azilal, a mountainous region of the high atlas in morocco. Unlike the boucherouite carpet which takes its name from the torn fabrics used for its design, the azilal carpet takes its name from this eponymous region of morocco. Indeed, before being a category of berber carpets, azilal is above all a moroccan city located 160 km from marrakech. Known as "the valley of happy people", the province of azilal rises to more than 1300 meters above sea level. That is why the women of the berber tribe of azilal began to weave and tie carpets to protect themselves from low temperatures in the cold seasons.
