AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful handwoven Nepalese wool rug with a timeless, minimalist design. The cream-white ground is decorated with dark brown geometric motifs and abstract border symbols reminiscent of Tifinagh script (the Berber alphabet). In the lower right corner, a stylised lizard or chameleon figure — a recurring symbol in Berber culture representing protection and adaptability.
The overall aesthetic has a strong Mid-Century Modern quality, making this rug a versatile fit for both vintage and contemporary interiors.
Provenance & certification:
This rug was imported by Bhoecht AG (Switzerland), a specialist importer of Nepalese and Tibetan handwoven rugs, and sold through Huylebroeck & Co, Antwerp road 264, Lier — a reputable Belgian oriental rug dealer.
