About Carpet Timizar:
I create unique accessories by combining authentic Moroccan textiles with quality materials and careful craftsmanship. Each piece honors traditional weaving and embroidery techniques while creating something functional for modern life. My bags bridge cultures and generations, bringing the rich heritage of Moroccan artistry into everyday style.
The Story Behind Each Bag:
Every carpet bag begins with carefully selected kilim textile, often featuring patterns and colors specific to different Moroccan regions. I hand-select leather in complementary colors, choose hardware that enhances the design, and personally construct each bag. The evil eye is hand-embroidered using traditional techniques—a process that can take hours but results in a beautiful, meaningful detail. This is more than a bag; it's wearable art with a story.
