About the Item
The geometric designs of Berber carpets represent a veritable coded language, handed down from mother to daughter, telling the secret story of the woman who wove it within the household hearth. The carpets feature lozenges, triangles, straight and zig-zag stripes, simple and geometric designs. Each rug is a 'unique' book, all to be decoded, the result of individual creativity and representing first and foremost the phases of the life of the woman who created it, adolescence, marriage, pregnancy, sexuality. The rug is thus a secret diary, a manuscript, a life story, and once finished it becomes a house rug, a blanket, a tapestry, or it is sold and will carry its secret story with it. Made of wool, a good rug contains at least 480,000 knots in one square meter, and it took at least nine months to make. Taznakht carpets are colored using natural pigments: saffron, henna, mint. They are made of goat or dromedary hair wool, and the woman wove it by spending long hours kneeling in front of the loom.

Vintage Orange Taznakht Moroccan Rug, Mediterranean Meets Tribal Enchantment
By Berber Tribes of Morocco
Located in Dallas, TX
20206 Vintage Orange Taznakht Moroccan Rug, 05'07 x 13'01.
Transport yourself to the sun-soaked landscapes of the Mediterranean with this exquisite hand-knotted wool vintage Taznakht Moroccan rug.

Burdocks, stars, and rosettes, woven into the fabric, add layers of meaning and depth to the design.
The vintage Moroccan rug is thoughtfully enclosed with a repeating rectilinear botanical border, forming a symbolic frame around the vibrant Taznakht carpet...
