Souvenir shopping in Marrakesh

  1. A

    Association Al Kawtar

    Bring some baraka (good vibes) to your table with hand-embroidered table linens in spare, striking designs, all made at a nonprofit vocational training and daycare centre for disabled women and their children. Exquisitely edged pillow cases, hand towels and napkins make lovely feel-good gifts at perfectly reasonable fixed prices.

    Masroure Abdillah

    It usually takes decades to earn the title maâlem (master craftsperson), but young Masroure earns the title the hard way, pounding wool with savon noir (black soap) into felt. He then moulds it into seamless slippers, baubles for necklaces, and sturdy tote bags. Masroure's felt flowers come in snappy shades of natural brown, bright orange and splashy hot pink, and make groovy brooches, hatpins and everlasting bouquets.

    Couleurs Orientales Marrakesh

    Your one-stop shop for snazzy Marrakesh mementos, including clever tasselled silk necklaces, striped silk flip-flops, and Tigmi cooperative placemats in deep orange with an embroidered zigzag edge. The fixed prices are less than what you'd pay for similar items along Rue de la Liberté.
