Our Traditional Moroccan rug is made of sabra silk ,100% vegetable silk blend of extracted filaments from the aloe cactus grown in Morocco. Once the Cactus plant is collected from the long agave plants, the long spiky leaves are crushed and the fibers washed and hammered, then the leaves are soaked in water to separate the fibers & filaments and then these are spun and woven to make “silk thread” which are then dyed in different colors.
