☀️ Atlas Sunset – vintage Moroccan floor cushion ☀️

Bring warmth and character into your home with this unique Atlas Sunset floor cushion, handmade in Morocco from vintage wool rugs. The deep shades of rust red, orange and golden tones form geometric patterns reminiscent of the sunset over the Atlas Mountains.

Each pillow is a true piece of craftsmanship – woven by Berber women with traditions passed down through generations. It bears traces of time's patina, which only makes it even more authentic and charming.

Perfect as extra seating, a footstool or as an atmospheric element in the living room.

  •  Material: Wool (recycled from vintage carpet)
  •  Origin: Handmade in Morocco
  •  Filling: Supplied without filling (can be easily filled with, for example, blankets, pillows or filling springs to give the desired shape and comfort) or you can choose your floor cushion with filling from a large mounting cushion 90×90 cm that fills the cushion well and makes it soft and comfortable to sit on.

Dimensions: approx. 60×60 cm and approx. 25-30 cm in height (may vary slightly as it is handmade) the back is in striped Berber carpet and there is a practical zipper to make it easier to fill.

A unique piece that only exists in one copy – once it is sold, there is no other like it.

Maintaining your floor cushion

If you should be unlucky enough to get a stain on your wool pouf or wool floor cushion, start by vacuuming the stain. The wool is naturally surrounded by lanolin, which forms a protective film on the fibres, so stains have a worse chance of penetrating. If it does not come off with this, you can take a damp cloth and dab on the stain, finally do not rub. Should we be lucky enough to have snow fall on a winter's day, lay out your wool pouf or wool blanket in the newly fallen snow. It is the most effective method to get it cleaned in depth

Floor cushions/poufs from azilal carpets

We have received a lot of floor cushions/wool poufs in different colors and patterns. These floor cushions are hand-stitched from genuine vintage azilal carpets, which is why all the floor cushions are different. The carpets come from the Azilal region in the Moroccan mountains east of Marrakech, where it is usually the women's job to weave the carpets by hand. Originally, the local Berber women did not have a written language, so they wove stories into the rugs, which is why each rug is unique. Azilal rugs are made from 100% wool – sometimes combined with cotton thread.

Fill your pouf
The best thing is to fill your pouf with a large firm cushion - preferably 90×90 cm, which will fill the entire cushion well. You can easily use things you already have, quilts, pillows, blankets or tightly crumpled newspaper. You can also buy foam granules or cotton filling for your pouf. If you use this kind of stuffing, we recommend that you sew an inner cover or take an old duvet cover and put the stuffing in it before you put it in your pouf.

When purchased additionally, we send it with a mounting pad 90×90 cm.
