About the Item

A vintage handmade wool rug from 1970s Algeria, in tricolour stripes of pleasing reds, browns, and blacks. The wool yarns come from ethically grown livestock, and are hand dyed and treated by locals using traditional organic methods – hence the high quality finish. These specific rugs are from the rebellious Kabylie mountains, where locals still speak the Berber Amazigh language. Tradition dictates that all young girls should have dowry for when it’s time to get married. As a result, they weave a significant amount of textiles with the help of their mothers and grandmothers to take to their new houses. All rugs should be washed in cold water and dried flat. Please note two are available, but the price is for one rug.

Berber Large 1970s Stripped Rug Handmade Vintage Boho North African
Located in London, GB
This handwoven Algerian Berber rug is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship with a simple stripped design and vibrant colors. This generous size rug features stripes of various colors such as red, yellow, green and many more all set against a beige background. The rug is made using traditional Berber weaving techniques to create a unique and durable textile. The use of natural materials, such as wool or cotton, ensures that the rug is not only beautiful but also eco-friendly. The stripes on the rug are arranged in a horizontal pattern, with each color blending seamlessly into the next. The red stripes are a bold, rich shade, while the yellow stripes are a bright, sunny hue. The green stripes are a deep, earthy tone, and other colors may be incorporated into the design as well. The beige background of the rug provides a neutral base for the colorful stripes, allowing the colors to stand out and make a statement. The texture of the rug is soft yet hardware, making it a comfortable and cozy addition to any room. 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. We have a large collection of Algerian Berber Amazigh rugs...
