About the Item
Moroccan Zayane rug handwoven with red, fuchsia, indigo and orange wool in an elaborate Berber symbol design, excellent condition. Circa 1970
Dimensions: 6'6 X 9'8
Zayane rugs originate from the Khénifra region in the Moroccan Middle Atlas mountains, home to the Amazigh Zayane tribe.
These rugs are handcrafted, typically featuring a blend of pure organic wool.
Zayane rugs are characterized by bold, vibrant color palettes, including reds, blues, greens, and oranges. A notable feature in some is a vivid color variation called "abrash," with shades from magenta to blood orange.
The patterns are often more intricate than other Berber rugs, incorporating geometric motifs, animal figures, and traditional symbols with cultural or spiritual significance.
Historically, Zayane rugs, especially those commissioned by wealthy Berber families, exhibited more formal and complex designs, often with a high pile (up to 10cm/3'9"). Some patterns were even primarily visible on the reverse side of the rug.
Craftsmanship and Significance:
Weaving Zayane rugs, known as "Tamizart" in Amazigh, is a traditional art demanding intelligence and precision.
Berber women artisans invest significant time and skill, sometimes weeks or months, using simple artisanal processes and tools to create these masterpieces.
These rugs are an expression of Berber heritage and civilization, with their designs reflecting the history, rituals, and identity of the Zayane tribes.
Beyond their aesthetic appeal, Zayane rugs are durable and designed for long-lasting use, often becoming cherished heirlooms. They add texture and energy to modern and traditional interiors alike.
In essence, a Zayane rug is a unique blend of artistry and cultural heritage. Its vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and hand-knotted construction using premium materials create a stunning and durable piece that embodies the spirit of the Moroccan Berber tribes.
