I remember when I went to the Mousem of Tan Tan -- the largest annual gathering of bedouins and nomads. I remember their beautiful peaked tribal tents. Within the tents, the furniture was kept deliberately minimal. Instead, they were furnished with Moroccan tribal carpets and Moroccan striped blankets. Of course, there was the ubiquitous smattering of Moroccan kilim carpet cushions and colorful Moroccan carpet poufs.
It was a setting meant for lounging in the original sense of the word: ie half sitting, half reclining, a glass of Moroccan mint tea in hand, casually chatting and laughing, a game or two played. It all seemed so relaxed.
I remember thinking to myself, these could be my people. Or perhaps, these are the people I wish I could be.
Now I'm thinking that these could be your people, too. Or at least their stylish tribal design sense.
Now for sale in Red Thread Souk......piles of one-of-a-kind Moroccan carpet cushions. Such ethnic chic. Many of the backs are entirely different than the front, getting you two great built in options.
Oh, and see my gorgeous black sequinned wedding blanket cushions - just the right modern day Moroccan touch -- on their own or as a counterfoil to the Moroccan kilim cushions.
And of course the Moroccan carpet poufs....such a graphic statement in pairs........
More, please, more.....
PS Now if only I had a beautiful Moroccan tribal tent that I could also pack up and strap to my camel...... Now come to think of it, if I only had a camel........
