Exquisite vintage Ouled bou Sbaa Moroccan carpet curated by Breuckelen Berber

About the Item

An intriguing carpet from the plains region southwest of Marrakech full of character and a well loved patina. Two opposing double axe motifs near the center of the composition reflect a harmony between male and female symbology. They are flanked by large scale vertical lozenge bands filled with tree of life motifs. Acting as protection symbols, a cluster of bird’s eye symbols float near the bottom of the composition. Borders with 8-pointed stars run along both selvedges. Woven in an abrash of faded magenta, apricot, charcoal, and ivory, 100% wool. A regional tribe southwest of Marrakech in the Haouz region (plains surrounding Marrakech), these carpets often have ornate symbology with geometric and agricultural references. Employing the symmetrical knot technique, the construction of these carpets tend to have a lower pile execution, dictated by the use in a warmer region of Morocco. All of our inventory is hand selected in Morocco. We curate the best possible selection of vintage Berber carpets available. Our entire collection of carpets and textiles is located in Brooklyn, New York. All of our pieces are professionally cleaned and restored prior to coming to market. We ship anywhere in the world within two weeks.
