Rare Oxblood Red Vintage Moroccan Aït Sgougou Rug Curated By Breuckelen Berber

About the Item

This vintage Moroccan Aït Sgougou carpet from the Middle Atlas beholds a dazzling composition, featuring an overall lozenge network filled with branches, bar formations, and agricultural motifs. A rural landscape is referenced and emphasized with an earthy palette of burnt sienna, and a hint of magenta, celadon, and ivory. 100% wool. A neighbor of the Beni M'Guild tribe, the Aït Sgougou produce a more rustic style of carpet often employing the use of the less labor-intensive symmetric knot technique over the more traditional Berber knot. Due to shortages in wool during the early 1900s, this was a common practice amongst Berber weavers. The use of red dominates the fields of this tribe's carpets, showing the influence of the Zaiane tribe to the East, but the use of red weft shoots allows for differentiation. Many smaller carpets of the Ait Sgougou tribe were created by woman for their own use in the home as floor coverings. 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.
