About the Item

Made with handwoven reed and camel leather in Mauritania circa 1950-1960, this 10x13 vintage Tuarage mat is an exceptional new addition to Rug & Kilim’s collection of rare works in this weaving tradition; the legacy of one of the most sought-after Moroccan floor covering provenances among designers and collectors today. On the Design: Admirers of the craft will especially appreciate Tuareg mats as distinct works with their own rich history and unique, masterful craftsmanship. This design is exemplary of the particularly bold and arresting approach to the primitivist Berber geometric patterns, enjoying large-scale medallions inspired by archaic Moroccan geometric patterns in rich burgundy red, black and brown over the warm golden ground. The large size and particular scale further connotes a particularly intricate work—likely made by two or more weavers with meticulous detail. It’s as much a collectible piece of folk art and nomadic culture as a comfortable, durable floor covering today. Condition: This vintage Moroccan Tuareg mat further enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
