❤️ How buying a Berber rug empowers women in Morocco
When you buy a genuine Berber carpet , you not only get a beautiful, hand-knotted unique piece – you also directly support women in rural areas of Morocco who have been passing on this craft for generations.
🧶 Craftsmanship with heart: The women behind the carpets
In the Berber villages of the Atlas Mountains, it is mostly women who weave the carpets. This often takes place in small cooperatives or in their own homes while they care for their families.
This work is:
-
a source of income for many women without other employment opportunities,
-
a way to pass on traditional knowledge ,
-
a sign of cultural identity and pride.
💬 “Every carpet tells a story”
The patterns seen on Berber carpets often have personal meanings:
-
They represent family, nature, femininity or spiritual protection.
-
No two carpets are alike – each one is a hand-knotted work of art .
So you are not just buying a product, but a piece of life experience, pride and culture .
