Merzouga Nomadic Art Crafts

“Despite knowing we weren't going to make any purchase, the friendly shop owner took time to share with us his wide selection of carpets. Price is also reasonable compared to the other shops in Merzouga. Highly recommend to drop by a visit! He can also do customisation.”

“Make sure to stop by this store during your time in Merzouga! It is full of beautiful, hand-made items from local Moroccan artisans. Pottery, jewelry, baskets, teapots, scarves, clothing, rugs--you will definitely find something wonderful for your home or to gift to a loved one. The owner, Yahia, is very welcoming and friendly. He patiently showed me dozens of hand-woven Berber, Bedouin, and Tuareg rugs and taught me the fascinating details about the colors, patterns, and designs that make each one unique. He carefully packaged up all my purchases to ensure safe travel, but he can also ship larger items if you don't have room in your suitcase.”

“We came upon this store by chance through a local connection. All carpets and blankets are handmade . The woman making the peace’s get a large part of the income (confirmed). I can not emphasize enough the value of this. We spent a couple of hours listening to the stories of some of the older (used )carpets and understanding the meaning of the new ones. Highly recommended!!”

“Yahya is amazing,very friendly, and welcoming. The store is well organized and full of cool stuff. Highly recommend”
