About the Item

20887 Vintage Taznakht Moroccan Rug, 05'09 x 10'08. This hand-knotted wool vintage Taznakht Moroccan rug is a dynamic fusion of color, texture, and abstract expression. The design is separated into three distinct columns, with the central column featuring a striking combination of black-coffee (espresso) and ivory confetti-like flecks. Flanked by columns filled with multicolored confetti sprinkles, this composition boldly challenges the traditional dogma of symmetry and balance. The playful and unexpected color placement draws the viewer's attention, creating a visual rhythm that is both captivating and thought-provoking. The Moroccan rug’s edges are neatly framed by zigzag kilim bands, adding a tactile contrast that emphasizes the plush texture of the central field. These woven bands provide a rhythmic structure to the overall design, grounding the lively chaos within. As you move across the Taznakht rug’s surface, the colorful sprinkles seem to pulse with energy, offering a tactile experience that complements the visual one. The soft wool fibers add a layer of organic comfort, inviting you to reach out and feel the woven art beneath your fingertips. Drawing inspiration from the abstraction and spontaneity of Abstract Expressionism and the precise patterns of Pointillism, this Taznakht rug masterfully organizes chaos into a cohesive artistic composition. From a distance, the chaotic colors merge to form an organized, yet dynamic design, challenging the viewer’s perception and drawing them into a contemplative experience. The design invites a sense of freedom and movement, breaking away from rigid traditions while maintaining a deep connection to the craft. With its earth-tone colors, luxurious texture, and abstract artistic expression, this vintage Taznakht Moroccan rug serves as both a functional piece and a work of art. Its organic composition, enriched by the interplay of dark and earthy hues, brings an eclectic and modern touch to nearly any space. This Moroccan rug’s bold design offers a fresh perspective on traditional Berber weaving, offering not only beauty but a deeper sense of creative energy that speaks across generations. Rendered in variegated shades of blackish-coffee, espresso, charcoal, gold, ocher, pistachio, avocado, royal blue, indigo, ink blue, brick red, rust, taupe, mauve, olive, and gray with colorful accents. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool. Hand-woven wool. Made in Morocco. Berber Tribes of Morocco. Taznakht. Measures: 05'09 x 10'08. Date: 1960's. Mid-20th Century.
