Antique Beni Mguild Moroccan Wool Shag Midcentury Vintage Chevron Area Rug
About the Item
This antique vintage Moroccan rug came from the Beni Mguild tribe from the central middle Atlas mountains from the region of the Guigou valley. This rug features beautiful dye, exhibiting rich color glowing colors. The color scheme is associated with the Beni Mguild tribe, but the fine details of the design are in the spirit of the Ait Seghrouchene tribe. It was an authentic Berber piece, originally commissioned in the mid 20th century, likley around the 1940s. Its intended use was for special occasions and seen as an object of prestige or a status symbol for a wealthy family.
Featuring a geometric V shaped or chevron pattern over a bold red background. Elements of indigo blue, white and orange are woven together to create this distinctive dynamic pattern. There is an infinite amount of variation and movement within the pattern, making it a majestic piece. It has fringe on one end.
It is made of handspun wool from sheep in the high mountains. This rug has a thick shag of lustrous soft wool with dense pile and solid structure. The glossy wool and saturated colors give this rug a captivating effect. In excellent condition for its age and is a fine collectible rug. A one of a kind, unique handmade carpet.
Perfect for contemporary use, whether in a midcentury modern space or a contemporary interior. Also could be used as a tapestry or wall hanging.
Although this 'V-design' type is commonly attributed to the Beni Mguild the patterning of single designs shows a lot of small details that correspond more with the design vocabulary of the Ait Seghrouchène de Sidi Ali + the Marmoucha as the next eastern neighbors. In fact all these groups shared summer pastures along the Guigou valley north of the Tichoukt mountain range and it is therefore not possible to clearly attribute such a rug to a particular tribal group.
This Moroccan carpet is part of Carini Carpets Moroccan carpet collection specially curated by Joseph Carini. On his travels around the world, Carini curates a collection of fine and rare vintage textiles and rugs, forming Joseph Carini's Private Reserve Collection. He is enamored by ancient techniques, natural dyes, and cultural symbology.
