Moroccan embroidery—"Tarz" in Arabic—is a rich and colorful tradition with deep cultural roots. It's not just decorative; it often carries symbolic meaning and is tied to regional identity, especially in places like Fez, Rabat, Meknes, and Tétouan. It’s used on clothing (like caftans and djellabas), home textiles, ottomans and footrests and ceremonial items, and each region has its own signature patterns and stitches.

Moroccan embroidery on leather is a beautiful and intricate art form that blends traditional craftsmanship with luxurious materials. It's often used to decorate bags, slippers (babouches), ottomans, poufs, belts, book covers, and jackets. The embroidery typically features geometric patterns, floral motifs, and arabesques, often stitched in vibrant silk threads or metallic gold/silver thread.
