About the Item
20706 Vintage Purple Beni MGuild Moroccan Rug, 06'06 x 14'07. Originating from the Beni M'Guild tribe nestled in Morocco's Middle Atlas Mountains, Beni M'Guild rugs embody a cherished tradition meticulously honed by skilled Berber women. These rugs boast luxurious piles, intricate geometric designs, and vibrant colors, adorned with iconic motifs such as diamonds and chevrons. Revered globally for their unparalleled craftsmanship and cultural significance, Beni M'Guild rugs are highly coveted by collectors and esteemed by interior designers seeking to infuse spaces with timeless sophistication. Each rug stands as a masterpiece, intertwining tales of tradition and heritage, seamlessly blending the past with the present, and leaving an indelible mark on the world of art and design with their undeniable allure and enduring beauty.
In a harmonious fusion of Bohemian Rhapsody and tribal enchantment, this hand-knotted wool vintage Beni M'Guild Moroccan rug emerges as a captivating masterpiece. Layers of tantalizing texture envelop an abrashed purple backdrop, setting the stage for the intricate diamond trellis that lies at its heart. Across the rug's surface, an allover pattern of lozenges, adorned with tribal motifs and enigmatic symbols, converges to form a mesmerizing lozenge lattice, each element rich in Ancient Berber symbolism.
Imbued with profound meaning and cultural significance, this woven wonder tells a story of tradition and heritage. Within its intricate design, traditional symbols of protection, femininity, and conception intertwine, creating a tableau of symbolism that speaks to the essence of Berber culture. The abundance of diamond shapes, heavily ornamenting the purple Beni M'Guild rug, symbolizes a woman's openness to conception and the power of womanhood. Within these diamonds, smaller ones nestled represent the prediction of pregnancy, while latch-hook edges on some lozenges serve as protection symbols against malevolent spirits.
Framed by a geometric border adorned with alternating diamonds and ladder designs, the rug's symbolism extends to the very edges, representing the male's role in reproduction. Each element of this vintage Beni M'Guild Moroccan rug serves as a testament to the intricate beliefs and traditions of the Berber people, inviting viewers to unravel its layers of meaning and embark on a journey through cultural richness and artistic expression.
Rendered in variegated shades of purple, violet, eggplant, lavender, amethyst, celadon, aqua, taupe, greige, gray and beige with other accent colors.
