Our story
A cooperative born in the Siroua Mountains
Since 2003, our cooperative in Taznakht has brought together Amazigh women from 13 families in the town and nearby villages. Together they keep alive a weaving tradition passed down through generations.
Every rug is made from Siroua sheep's wool and sold directly by the cooperative: fair pay for the weavers, a fair price for you, and no middlemen.
The artisans
Meet the women behind each rug
During your visit you can watch the weavers at the loom, learn how a pattern is created and talk with the artisans about their work.
Hand-knotting
Each knot is tied by hand in Siroua sheep's wool. A single rug can take from three weeks to four months, depending on its size and density.
Weaving from memory
The weavers draw their patterns from the mountains, plants and animals around them, from memory, with no sketch to follow.
Embroidery & symbols
Woven, woolen and embroidered Amazigh symbols carry stories and meanings passed from mother to daughter.
