About the Item
20775 Vintage Moroccan Wedding Blanket, 04'04 x 07'05. Immerse your space in the tranquil allure of this vintage Moroccan wedding blanket—an embodiment of Shibui elegance meticulously handwoven by the skilled artisans of the Beni Ourain. The subtle beauty of this piece is gently accentuated by discreet Kilim bands on the underside, revealing whispers of a specific region and paying homage to the diverse craftsmanship of its origin.
Once donned as a modest cape on a bride's journey to her new abode, this vintage Handira unfolds a narrative intricately woven by the hands of the bride's own kin. Beyond its tangible threads, this throw blanket becomes a symbolic vessel of Baraka—a silent bestower of blessings, a guardian against malevolent forces, a harbinger of good fortune, and a conduit for the cherished gift of fertility.
In a delicate cream hue, this treasured textile introduces a nuanced touch of opulence to any space. Its neutral palette and heirloom aesthetic gift it with a versatile grace, effortlessly blending into diverse environments. Whether casually draped over a couch or gracing your bed as a coverlet, headboard, or rug, this vintage Moroccan wedding blanket emanates a romantic Bohemian design. Soft, neutral tones seamlessly intertwine with delicate textures, creating an atmosphere of timeless elegance—an understated ode to the discerning connoisseur's appreciation for the inherent beauty of simplicity.
Rendered in variegated shades of beige, sand, almond, macadamia, straw, coffee, brown, and chocolate with other neutral colors.
