Description from the seller

Handwoven in the heights of the Atlas Mountains, this rug is much more than a decorative object; it is a piece of contemporary Amazigh art, born from the crossing between ancient Berber art and modern expressionism.

The face, traced through natural wool, seems to observe, question, and transmit a collective memory.
Each color tells a part of the eternal Morocco:
Black — a symbol of strength and memory.
The orange — the warmth of the earth and the vitality of life.
The blue — the infinite sky and freedom.
White — the purity of the gesture and the sincerity of the soul weaver.

This piece comes from the Azilal region, famous for its instinctive, emotional, and powerful creations.
In this tradition, craftswomen often weave faces inspired by their dreams, ancestors, or protective spirits.
Here, the hypnotic gaze seems to transcend time and silence.

Each node is a woman's heartbeat, each shade a spiritual imprint.
This rug is a spontaneous creation, non-reproducible, comparable to an artist's canvas.
