Moroccan Azilal rag rugs, also known as Boucherouite rugs, are traditional handwoven rugs crafted by Berber artisans in the Azilal region of Morocco. These rugs stand out for their vibrant colors, diverse designs, and distinctive textures achieved through weaving strips of recycled fabric like cotton, wool, and sometimes synthetic materials. Unlike conventional wool rugs, which use sheep's wool, Azilal rag rugs prioritize sustainability by repurposing old textiles. Historically, Berber women crafted these rugs using leftover fabric scraps, including clothing and blankets, for functional and decorative purposes. Today, Azilal rag rugs are favored not only for their eco-friendliness but also for their bold designs, making them a popular choice among interior decor enthusiasts seeking unique and sustainable furnishings.

Each thread is carefully selected and meticulously woven to minimize waste and maximize efficiency, ensuring that every aspect of the rug contributes to its eco-friendly nature.
