This pillow was made by a group of artisans who reside in a village just outside of Beni M’rirt which is located within the Middle Atlas Mountains.
Soukina leads this group of 25 artisans from a Village just outside Beni M’rirt, in the Middle Atlas Mountains. Founded in the early 2000s by Soukina’s late mother, Keltouma, the collective makes medium to high hand-knot rugs, a style named after the region. Traditional rugs from this region use a thick knotting technique, which makes the rugs feel extra plush.
This pillow is made up of 100% “live” sheep’s wool. This timeless piece represents generations of tradition and symbolism. Each pillow is one-of-a-kind, made from textiles that was woven in the village.
