About the Item

20866 Vintage Neutral Moroccan Azilal Rug, 02'08 x 06'09. This hand-knotted wool vintage Moroccan Azilal rug is a vibrant testament to the enduring spirit of Berber craftsmanship. The Azilal rug showcases an all-over pattern of Elibelinde motifs, a symbol deeply rooted in the cultural heritage of the Azilal region. These intricate forms, reminiscent of hands-on-hips or goddess motifs, symbolize fertility, motherhood, and the eternal cycle of life. With each knot and woven thread, the rug tells the tale of generations past, carrying within it the timeless wisdom and rituals of the Berber people. At the heart of the design lies the powerful connection between the masculine and feminine. The ram’s horn motifs, representing virility and strength, are delicately intertwined with the feminine Elibelinde shapes, also known as the "hands-on-hips" symbols, embodying grace and nurturing power. These motifs converge in a central diamond, symbolizing unity and balance between the forces of life—masculine and feminine, power and creation. The intricate interplay of these symbols breathes life into the Moroccan rug, offering a glimpse into the sacred traditions of the Berber tribe. The colors, earthy and warm, add depth and significance to the rug's symbolism. The rich browns and tans evoke the natural landscape of Morocco, while the contrasting dark outlines serve to enhance the vibrancy of the motifs, guiding the eye through a visual narrative of fertility, protection, and vitality. Each motif, carefully woven by skilled artisans, is a visual representation of the tribe’s spiritual beliefs and their deep reverence for the forces of nature. It is a beautiful expression of how art can embody cultural legacy and spiritual wisdom. This vintage Azilal rug is more than just a decorative piece; it is a sacred artifact, rich with meaning and steeped in history. The enduring patterns and symbols, passed down through generations, make it a unique addition to any space, offering not only warmth and beauty but also a sense of connection to the earth and its cycles. Whether displayed in a contemporary setting or in a traditional home, this Moroccan wonder brings with it the essence of the Berber people, inviting you to embrace the profound cultural legacy woven into every thread. Rendered in variegated shades of beige, brown, taupe, coffee, and espresso with other neutral colors. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool and cotton. Made in Morocco. Berber Tribes of Morocco. Azilal. Measures: 02'08 x 06'09. Date: 1970's. Late 20th Century.
