Taznakht
A regional centre for Amazigh weaving. Meet artisans and explore carpets and kilims with attention to materials, workmanship and the maker’s story.
The place & its story
Taznakht is associated with Amazigh weaving. A good visit makes time for the maker’s explanation of materials and technique, with no assumption that everyone must buy a carpet.
What to look for
Compare specific pieces by dimensions, fibre, weave and workmanship. Ask who made a piece and what is known about its origin. Agree a receipt, packing and delivery terms before purchase.
What to discover
- Carpet and kilim craft
- Cooperative visits
- Regional weaving traditions
