In the beginning, each and every design was a story.

The Qoms artisans did not just create design patterns randomly; they followed a perfectly balanced and meaningful order.

The symbols they used were a language and were composed of figures such as diamonds, hexagons, rhombuses, and squares.

Each creation of the ancient artisan told a story about events of their daily life.

This is why they made their pieces by weaving the forms first and then filling in the rest of the tapestry. They told the story first and finished the piece later, a unique method of weaving compared to other traditions that focus on weaving by rows.

Nowadays, understanding that language has been partially lost from generation to generation, but not the key symbols or weaving techniques.

They remain intact for us as a reminder that their creative process is a part of their souls and that their art reflects their dearest ancestral traditions.
