Moroccan Berber Miniature Prayer Rug

About the Item

A rare and unusual Moroccan rug woven in the hooked technique, employing wool together with recycled industrial fibres on a plastic foundation. Weaving of this type were apparently employed as prayer mats, especially as the small size and very light weight would make it an easily transportable item. A wonderful example of how a weaver can express beauty even through a utilitarian object.
