About the Item
21514 Vintage Beni Mrirt Moroccan Rug, 06'00 x 10'07. This hand-knotted wool vintage Beni Mrirt Moroccan rug is a remarkable piece of art, rich in symbolism and cultural depth. The central motif of Solomon's Star is framed by vibrant orange lozenge shapes, symbolizing protection, spiritual power, and divine order. This intricate geometric pattern is flanked by the Elibelinde motif, positioned both above and below the star, representing femininity, fertility, and the balance of life forces. The Elibelinde, often called the "hands-on-hips" or goddess motif, further strengthens the spiritual and protective qualities of the Beni Mrirt rug, emphasizing the connection between the earth, life, and sacred femininity.
Solomon's Star, the central element, is a symbol of wisdom, strength, and divine guidance. In the context of Berber culture, it is a potent protector, meant to shield its inhabitants from harmful energies and ensure harmony within the home. The surrounding cross-like shapes are often associated with the protective powers of the ancient Berber symbols, serving as a safeguard against malevolent energies while the Elibelinde motifs are indicative of a nurturing, protective force. These esoteric tribal symbols complement Solomon's Star by embodying the sacred feminine power that governs growth and vitality, particularly within family and community life.
The striking combination of blue-violet and orange hues within this Moroccan rug carries its own significance. The deep blue-violet represents the sky and spirituality, often linked to wisdom, tranquility, and connection to the divine. Meanwhile, the fiery orange symbolizes warmth, vitality, and protection—imbuing this woven wonder with energy and life. The interplay between these colors creates a visual balance that mirrors the spiritual and protective balance offered by the motifs.
This Beni Mrirt Moroccan rug is not merely a decorative piece—it is a sacred artifact, woven with care to carry the wisdom, symbolism, and history of the Berber people. As you step onto its plush surface, you invite the presence of these timeless symbols into your home, allowing their protective and nurturing energies to envelop your space, fostering harmony and connection to the rich cultural legacy of Morocco.
Rendered in variegated shades of blue-violet and orange with other accent colors.
