About the Item

20731 Vintage Taznakht Moroccan Rug, 05'11 x 09'10. Behold the timeless enchantment woven into this hand-knotted wool vintage Taznakht Moroccan rug—a captivating narrative spun with distinctive styles, creating mesmerizing geometric designs that resonate with the rich cultural significance of Taznakht. Embracing the essence of nomadic charm, the earthy color palette, adorned with charcoal gray and resplendent red hues, pays homage to the diverse landscapes that grace the canvas of Morocco. A velvety charcoal black backdrop sets the scene for the allover dance of ambiguous motifs, where alternating tribal symbols unfold a tale steeped in the ancient history of the Berber Tribe. The double X-shapes speak of a woman's embrace of fertility and the inherent power of womanhood, while the Hamsa camel tracks, a protective motif, form a rhythmic beat against the canvas, warding off malevolent forces. This intricate fusion of nomadic charm and ancient symbolism transforms the vintage Taznakht Moroccan rug into a captivating artifact, echoing the profound cultural beliefs passed down through generations. Step into a world where every motif whispers a story, and the Moroccan rug becomes a portal to the ageless mystique of the Berber heritage.
