Vintage Moroccan Sahraouia Rug 305/140 cm

Circa 1980's. A characterful flat-weave sourced from the Zagoura region in Morocco, on the cusp of the Sahara desert. Sahraoui flat weaves were the most common textiles for nomadic tribes travelling the dunes, densely woven to endure the climate, but still breathable and lighter weight due to the mix of sheep and goat wool. The design of Sahraoui rugs reflects the local landscape, with repeating horizontal bands of gradient colour that cascade along the length of the rug in a steady, rhythmic progression. A true room maker, whether on the floor or suspended as a statement wall.

Amazigh rugs are originally handmade by Amazigh women, who have learnt the skill of weaving from their mothers and grandmothers. Each piece is unique with a strong character that shows in the story they tell and the imperfections they proudly display, reminding us of the beauty of authenticity and slow patient craftsmanship.
