Vintage Moroccan Berber Tazenakht Handwoven Tribal Rug with Tassels – 4′5″ × 5′1
About the Item
This vintage Moroccan Berber rug from the Tazenakht region is a vibrant example of tribal textile art, handwoven with rich symbolism and bold color rhythm. Measuring 4′5″ × 5′10″, this unique piece features a maze-like lattice of stylized trees or feather-like motifs enclosed within geometric frames. The field is filled with diagonally striped micro patterns in a vivid palette of deep blue, crimson, ivory, and saffron orange—each stripe hand-loomed with remarkable precision.
The multicolor fringe on all sides enhances its folk character and tactile charm. Subtle tribal embellishments, such as tiny wool tufts and knotted accents, add depth and individuality to the design. Traditionally woven by women of the Aït Ouaouzguite tribes, these pieces often carried protective or symbolic meanings, such as fertility and nature's abundance.
Its size and dynamic surface make it ideal as a decorative wall hanging, statement entryway piece, or layered accent in bohemian, eclectic, or contemporary spaces.
