1970s Berber Rug Multicolour Stripped Handmade Wool Vintage African 196x196cm
About the Item
Introduce a touch of vintage elegance to your space with this Berber wool rug. The beige base provides a neutral backdrop for multicolored stripes organized in delicate groups. Notably, the stripe groups feature a dominant purple followed by a soothing green.
The rug's multicolored stripes create a visually appealing design that adds subtle character to any living space. Arranged in slim groups, the predominantly purple, green, and orange hues, among others, gently enhance the overall aesthetic. Following an irregularly straight organic line pattern, the stripes incorporate breaks with three different geometrical and monochrome elements, resulting in a specific sense of structure.
The rug is handwoven in high-quality organic wool material, making it durable and long-lasting.
Being a vintage piece, this Berber wool rug has a timeless quality that adds charm and character to any room either you decide to use it as a rug or a bed throw. Its neutral beige color provides versatility, allowing it to complement any interior design style.
Although each rug is unique and made as part of a woman's dowery, most of them they strike a resemblance on the use of different colours that reflect the Berber people's beliefs and traditions, such as red representing strength and yellow symbolising wealth and happiness.
We source a big number of Berber rugs from Algeria in various sizes and this specific one comes from the mountainous area of Kabylie which holds an immense historical and cultural background.
Unlike other Berber rugs that originate from neighbouring touristic countries and anyone could grab a rug, Algeria is not a touristic destination and therefore extremely difficult to find these rugs outside the country.
