20422 Vintage Taznakht Moroccan Kilim Rug, 05'00 x 12'02.
Taznakht rugs come to life in the heart of Morocco, precisely in the Taznakht region. Nestled in the eastern expanse of the Anti-Atlas mountains, Taznakht has carved its niche in the realm of traditional handwoven rugs, particularly the renowned kilims. Artisans in Taznakht masterfully employ age-old weaving techniques, giving rise to these rugs that eloquently embody the distinctive cultural and artistic tapestry of the region. Bursting with lively hues, geometric intricacies, and elaborate designs, these rugs serve as a testament to the skilled craftsmanship and creative ingenuity of Taznakht's weaving community.
Displaying clean lines and a bold colorway, this hand-woven vintage Berber Moroccan Kilim souf rug can create a global look from around the world! The flat-weave Kilim area rug features a series of stripes and bands with a raised design composed of symbolic Berber motifs. Though deceptively simple, this tribal kilim rug is steeped in cultural significance and Berber tradition. With bold geometric forms, vibrant colors and tribal flair, this vintage kilim rug manages to beautifully meld contemporary, modern, and traditional design elements.
