Making baskets is still a long-standing tradition in Morocco. Berber women from various regions in particular devote themselves to this task. This always results in exciting patterns and color gradients.
Berbers are mainly found in what is now Morocco and Algeria, with isolated groups also in Tunisia and south of there in the Sahara. Their current population numbers are difficult to determine, as the Berber culture and language have been pushed back by mixing with the Arab population. Amazigh Berbers are the Berbers of the Atlas Mountains, they speak the Berber dialect Tamazight. Berber handicrafts have a special significance in Morocco. Basketry, carpets and jewelry always have one thing in common: they abstract the present. Berbers are more than just artisans, they are artists, geometry is lost in their works. It can be integrated into modern home designs and is used by interior designers worldwide to set colorful accents.
Set colorful accents in the living area with useful Moroccan interiors, primarily from Fes and Marrakesh. We work with small businesses and thus promote the independence of Moroccan artisans. We enjoy the beauty and harmony of Moroccan handicrafts, which have a centuries-old tradition. Innovations are not excluded in this area, however. Time and again we meet ambitious artisans who incorporate their creativity into the product.
For those who want to bring a part of this culture into their living room, our online shop is there for you.
Have fun with it. :)
