Nejma Artisan Tunisian Handwoven Rugs by The Rug Weaver (3)

Tunisia has a rich history of weaving rugs. The story goes that in the 19th century, the daughter of the Ottoman governor was the first person, in Kairouan, to weave a carpet using wool to give to one of the city’s mosques. The tradition continued, and Tunisia developed into one of the leading countries in traditional carpet weaving, using techniques that date back centuries. Each of our exquisitely hand loomed rugs is made from 100% premium wool, and can be made in a range of stunning colours and designs. The weaving techniques are the same as those used all those hundreds of years ago, and this is reflected in the beautiful one of a kind creations that you see before you.
