Vintage rugs have been sourced throughout Morocco.  Each is hand woven by local Amazigh (Berber) women, generally in rural areas of Morocco, with weaving techniques passed down through generations, from mother to daughter.  Each Amazigh tribe uses different techniques in their weaving or knotting, use of color, and use of symbolism or design, which is modified further by each individual.  Vintage rugs typically use natural wool and natural colors developed from plant and vegetable dyes. 

Because of the handmade nature and age of these rugs, each has lived a previous life and show signs of normal wear, which may include fading or discoloration, repairs, or other imperfections.  These are normal and add to the character of the piece.
