Moroccan Kilims—including the famed Zanafi flatweaves from the High Atlas and Taznakht—are masterpieces of ancient slit-weave and warp-faced tapestry techniques. Unlike knotted pile carpets, kilims are entirely flatwoven with no pile, resulting in a firm, sleek, and exceptionally durable textile.
Woven on horizontal and vertical looms with hand-spun local sheep wool, Moroccan kilims feature sharp, high-contrast geometric motifs, intricate micro-patterns, and braided fringe finishes. Because they lack a heavy pile, they are lightweight, easily portable, and dual-sided—allowing you to flip the rug for a fresh look and even wear.
Their smooth surface and breathable weave make Moroccan kilims the ideal choice for dining rooms, high-traffic corridors, home offices, and warm-climate living rooms where chairs must glide easily across the floor.
