About the Item
This rare vintage Tuareg mat is a masterpiece of nomadic African craftsmanship, handmade in the 1970s in Mauritania by the Tuareg people of the Sahara. Woven with natural reed and embellished with engraved leather inserts, it represents a perfect balance between functionality and tribal sophistication.
Traditionally used as flooring in nomadic camps, these mats were designed to insulate from the desert heat and decorate the interior spaces of tents. Each engraved geometric pattern tells a symbolic story, part of the Tuareg cultural identity, making each piece absolutely unique.
With its large size (512×269 cm) and the understated beauty of natural materials, this mat is ideal for sophisticated settings, boutique hotels, architectural firms and contemporary ethnic interior design projects.
A collector's item that combines history, culture and design, perfect for those seeking authenticity, materiality and prestige in a single textile work.
