MOROCCAN RUGS

Who we are

Yasmina and Brahim founded Surcoma 10 years ago. For Brahim, carpets are a family story. His grandmother was a famous weaver in Marrakesh. Moroccan Rugs always were a part of his life since his childhood. In the years, Brahim built honest and trustful relationships with people living in different region of Morocco and founded his first cooperatives. His persevering work and experience in this field allows him to select rare vintage rugs coming from the source, in the mountains of Morocco and to produce high quality newly made rugs with creative designs.
Yasmina is born in Switzerland and worked as a social worker in Switzerland and Germany. Passionate about interior design and travels, she decided to live in Marrakesh and manage the warehouse and the logistic with a small professional team of guys who help to restore, clean and handle the packaging of the rugs daily.

Together, we learned and got humble knowledge to curate the most diverse and best quality rugs of Morocco and built strong, long-lasting collaboration with resellers, designers and retailers all over the world. Our transparent work and meticulous organization are what sets us apart from the competition. The satisfaction of our customers is our first priority and we take lots of care to success in this sense.

If you are in Marrakesh, you can take an appointment with us or come spontaneously. We would be more than happy to meet you around a cup of coffee.

With lots of love,
Yasmina & Brahim

USEFUL

Our rugs are stunning floor art, but also functional and resistant to time. We select the best quality of rugs and pay our artisans fairly to choose the finest quality of wool. Wool and the care taken in the washing process are important aspects to determine the quality of a rug. Wool rugs bring comfort, solidity and warmth to a space. It purifies the air by absorbing pollutants. We use 100% natural living sheep wool of Morocco. It is environmentally friendly, renewable and easy to maintain. Indeed, a vacuum cleaner blow per week in soft mode allows to give it a new aspect.

RARE

Having a Moroccan rug is a worthwhile long-term investment that you can pass down for your generations to come. Once a rug is sold, you will never be able to find a similar ones. Some vintage rugs became really rare to find today. Our rugs were handwoven in rural Berber villages in the Mountains, far away from the cities and weaving a rug require lots of skill, patience and practice. Some women that produced rugs in 1970’s no longer exercises today. The knowledge, the tribe, the age of a rug, the patterns and the experience of the weavers determines the scarcity and the cost of a rug.
