Descripción
Skillfully hand-embroidered by Berber ladies from the heart of the Middle Atlas Mountains using the double-sided embroidery technique, our Ethnic Moroccan tablecloths can be used on both sides as the geometric designs are identical on each side. Our artisans have perfected this embroidery style since their early adulthood, inheriting the tradition from mother to daughter. Their mastery is evident in the creation of intricate geometric patterns without the need for preliminary designs on the fabric.
This remarkable artistry is known, in Morocco, as 'Tarz el Ghorza,' which translates to Counted-thread embroidery. This technique meticulously calculates the number of warp and weft yarns for each stitch, resulting in a symmetrical, uniform embroidery pattern with stitches of precise length, thus, requiring weeks, and even months, of dedicated effort to be embroidered.

Please, note that our table covers and napkins are 100% hand cut so they might be couple of inches longer or shorter than the measures mentioned above.
Also, all the patterns are embroidered using the counted thread embroidery by hand so there might be some slight imperfections. As the proverb goes ‘’ The beauty of hand-made lies in the imperfections, anything perfect is Machine made.’’
Material: 90% natural cotton.
10% Polyester.
While many sellers market their table covers as 100% cotton, here, at Moroccantastics, we believe that customer trust is key to driving loyalty and business success.
Although we believe that cotton is a perfect material for tablecloths, but we also recognize that it’s less durable and has many drawbacks such as its tendency to shrink after washing, and its inability to resist stains as other materials.
That’s why we have chosen a fabric with a blend of 90% cotton and 10% Polyester to avoid shrinkage after washing, to make our table covers more resistant to stains and most importantly to increase the durability and protect the environment by conserving resources and reducing wastes and the environmental impacts of repair and replacement.
