Mauritanian mat - 86 x 112 cm

Crafted by nomadic Tuareg artisans, this compact vintage rug embodies the very essence of nomadic life. Measuring 86x112 cm, its natural fibers bear witness to desert winds and starry nights. Each weathered thread and traditional pattern evokes journeys across shifting sands. More than just a rug, this rug is a portable heirloom that brings the wild spirit of nomadic freedom to your home. The Tuareg rug is a traditional handcrafted masterpiece created by the Tuareg people, a nomadic Berber ethnic group living in the Sahara, particularly in Mauritania. Made from natural materials like palm leaves, reeds, and leather strips, these rugs are often adorned with beautiful geometric and symbolic designs. They serve both functional and cultural purposes, such as seating, prayer, and tent decoration. This craftsmanship is a testament to Tuareg artistry, endurance, and a rich cultural heritage passed down from generation to generation.
