Chaoun – Handwoven Amazigh Rug
A tribute to coastal ancestry and Mediterranean serenity.
Handwoven Amazigh Rug – A Tribute to Coastal Ancestry
Chaoun is inspired by the blue-washed medinas of Chefchaouen—locally known as Chaoun—capturing the spirit of northern Morocco's Mediterranean towns. The iconic blue tones are more than just decorative; they speak to centuries of Amazigh presence, where sky and sea merge in daily life.
The hues, reminiscent of blue cities from Morocco to Tunisia and Greece, serve as a reminder of civilizations intertwined along coastal routes—where nature’s colors have long symbolized unity and sanctuary.
Crafted by Amazigh women artisans in the Atlas Mountains, Chaoun is a handwoven homage to place, memory, and ancestral artistry. Its airy palette and fluid design echo the tranquility of coastal living while grounding your space in rich cultural heritage.
