History of Moroccan Rug and its benefits

Introduction

First, let’s find out what is a rug and then we will talk about Moroccan rug. Basically, there is no such difference between a rug and a carpet. You can use this two words, they are used alternatively. Both the words are used for covering the floor. So instead of carpet, you can say rug or vice versa.

Introduction

Berbers are a group of tribal people who stay in Africa. While staying there they used to make rugs of their own needs. These Berbers are distributed in many areas like:

• Atlantic ocean
• Siwa Oasis in Egypt
• Mediterranean sea
• Niger river in West Africa

They used to speak in the Berber language.

What you should consider about Berber Rugs

The Berber are a tribe indigenous to North Africa and the Sahara. The name, when associated to carpets and/or rugs specifically refers to the distinctive style of weaving applied by the Berber women, that of loops and knots. Although the question of authenticity falls under a grey area as mass production, while retaining the layout, do not really follow the traditional style which was limited to the use of very few colours that would occur naturally.
