About Us
Welcome to TazRugs, where timeless tradition meets contemporary beauty. Our handwoven rugs are crafted with care by skilled Amazigh women in the heart of Taznakht, Morocco. Each rug tells a unique story, woven with love, heritage, and a deep connection to the land.
At the foot of Morocco’s Atlas Mountains, in Taznakht, a village rich in culture and tradition, women have been weaving beautiful, hand-crafted rugs for generations. These rugs reflect the deep heritage of the Amazigh people, woven with stories passed down through the ages.
However, despite their talent, the women of Taznakht have long been exploited by intermediaries who buy their rugs at low prices and resell them for much higher amounts. This system has left them struggling to receive fair compensation for their work.
To change this, my mother and 64 other women weavers founded a cooperative, creating a space where they can work autonomously, set fair prices, and directly benefit from their labor. This cooperative is a step towards empowerment, dignity, and a more sustainable future.
At TazRugs, we’re passionate about preserving ancient weaving techniques while making them accessible to modern homes around the world. Our rugs are more than just decor – they are a piece of culture, a testament to craftsmanship, and a legacy passed down through generations.
With a deep connection to my roots and a desire to support these incredible artisans, I’ve launched this platform to bring their handcrafted rugs to the world. Our site connects these women directly with customers, offering not just a product, but a story—a piece of heritage woven with love, care, and tradition.
Through this initiative, we aim to ensure that each weaver receives fair compensation, and their art continues to thrive globally. Every rug sold supports the empowerment of Taznakht’s women and helps preserve a timeless tradition.
Thank you for joining us on this journey to celebrate craftsmanship, culture, and the resilience of these remarkable women.
