AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Hand-knotted Zemmour rug by the weavers of the Moroccan Middle Atlas, guardians of a know-how passed down from generation to generation. An exceptional piece, distinguished by its delicacy and its poetic atmosphere, in contrast to Zemmour rugs with intense reds.
On a creamy ivory background with a beautiful patina unfolds a design of remarkable finesse: large caramel-brown contour-woven diamonds, specks of emerald green diamonds, stars, Berber crosses, and traditional symbols scattered across the surface. The top of the rug features a border adorned with small aligned motifs, signature of Zemmour compositions. This soft palette—ivory, green, and earth—gives the piece an understated elegance and a strong presence.
The patina and shade variations testify to the vintage character and history of this rug, an authentic piece full of soul, ideal for a bohemian, vintage, or contemporary interior seeking a unique touch.
Fringed finishes at the ends.
