camel and sheep wool
Handwoven Moroccan Wool Throw, Camel Hair Blanket, Taupe Berber Tattoo
$150.50+ $215.00+
-
DetailsHandwoven in Morocco from white sheep wool, dromedary camel hair and
camel hair — 100% natural, undyed fibres, spun and woven by hand.
THE CENTRAL MOTIF — RICHNESS AND FAMILY
The diamond at the centre of this blanket represents richness and the
connection between family. It is the design Berber weavers have set into
their cloth for generations, drawn with the arrows either side carrying
the blessing outward.
THE BORDER MOTIFS — MIDDLE ATLAS MOUNTAINS
The smaller motifs running through the borders come from the Middle Atlas
Mountains. These are the marks of the mountain weavers — passed down
through families, not designed for a catalogue.
Between them, this blanket carries two mountain traditions in a single
piece.
WHY NATURAL FIBRE COSTS WHAT IT COSTS
A machine-made blanket takes minutes. This one takes days. The wool is
gathered from sheep grazing mountain pastures, washed, combed and spun
into yarn by hand. The camel hair is blended in for warmth and softness.
It is then woven on a traditional wooden loom, one blanket at a time.
No synthetic fibre. No industrial production. No shortcut.
Wool from live animals keeps properties processed wool loses — it
breathes and regulates temperature, staying warm without overheating,
and it resists dust mites and odours naturally. It is soft, weighty and
reassuring in the hand, and it gets softer with every year of use.
HOW TO USE IT

Throw over a sofa, bench or reading chair
Layered at the end of a bed
Living room and reading chair

CARE

Are your blankets handmade?
Yes. Each blanket is carefully woven by skilled Moroccan artisans using traditional techniques. Small variations may occur, making every piece unique.
Custom and personalized orders
Our materials depend on the blanket style. We use natural camel wool in white, brown, and light brown from young dromedaries, as well as natural sheep's wool. We also offer wool blended with agave fiber for exceptional softness and a feel similar to organic cotton. Some blankets are made from organic cotton. Please check each listing for its exact materials.
Custom and personalized orders
We use natural dyes made from flowers, plants, and minerals, including poppy flowers, turmeric, saffron, henna, and indigo and more. We believe natural colors bring each blanket to life and enhance its unique beauty. Colors may vary slightly because every blanket is handmade and naturally dyed.
Why are your blankets 100% natural?
Our blankets are 100% natural because we want to preserve an ancient Moroccan Amazigh weaving tradition that has been passed down for generations. Wool has always been at the heart of our heritage.
Our mission is to share these handcrafted blankets with the world, helping people reconnect with nature, traditional craftsmanship, and the beauty and comfort of natural fibers. Each blanket carries the story of our land, our artisans, and our origins.What do the symbols on the blankets mean? and How long can a blanket last?
Each woven symbol has a special meaning. Some represent the region or community where the blanket was made, while others carry messages of family love, patience, protection, health, strength, happiness, prosperity, and long life. Certain symbols are also traditionally believed to offer protection from the evil eye. Together, they preserve the stories, values, and heritage of Moroccan Amazigh culture.
How long can a blanket last?
A traditional blanket made from natural wool can last for generations when cared for properly. It is designed to become part of your family heritage - a meaningful piece that carries your story and preserves your memory for future generations.
