Female-owned Silver Sahara is a provisional member of the World Fair Trade Association. The founder, Carolina partners directly with artisan Hocine Bazine, whose family has been weaving in this style for many centuries. In addition to the making of fibers, the artisans arrange lines on their traditional hand-loom and are masters of the Berber knotting pattern (the Berber Knot).
Bazine’s work in the region is helping many families to alleviate poverty by offering them a sustainable source for living. This, in addition to keeping his culture and tribal legacy alive, motivates Bazine to work more and more. Having the rugs recognized and appreciated on a global scale has further encouraged Bazine to save his heritage and the survival of this noble art.
All sales on Silver Sahara benefit the native artisans and help to ensure the continuation of traditional craft techniques.
