Description from the seller

Authentic vintage Moroccan Berber rug from the Middle Atlas Mountains, attributed to the Beni Mguild tribe, known for their richly colored, high-pile wool rugs designed for both beauty and insulation.

This piece features a geometric diamond lattice pattern, symbolizing protection and harmony in Berber tradition. The color palette combines burnt orange, indigo blue, soft grey, cream, burgundy, and mustard tones, creating a bold yet balanced composition suitable for both modern and classic interiors.

The rug is hand-knotted from 100% natural wool, with a dense and plush pile that offers excellent texture and depth. The reverse shows clearly defined knot structure, confirming traditional craftsmanship. Finished with original hand-twisted fringe.
