Vintage Beni M'Guild Rug - 323 x 175 cm

Vintage Beni M'Guild rug | Handwoven wool rug with diamond pattern and contrasting magenta band Product presentation This vintage Beni M'Guild rug features a dense diamond pattern across its surface; each compartment is adorned with small tribal symbols in warm tones of orange, cream, and soft violet-grey. A striking magenta band runs across the top of the piece, adding a bold touch to an otherwise warm palette of earthy tones, while a decorative border of repeated "X" patterns frames the rug on all sides. Hand-knotted in wool by Berber women from the Beni M'Guild tribes in the Middle Atlas of Morocco, this rug exemplifies the tradition of structured weaving rich in symbols, characterised by dense and repetitive patterns executed with great precision. The patinated and softened colours, along with the slightly worn velvet, testify to its authenticity and history, shaped by decades of use. With its richly crafted diamond pattern and bold magenta touch, this vintage Beni M'Guild rug is a true collector's piece for interiors that appreciate intricate patterns and historical authenticity. Authentic Beni M'Guild craftsmanship Each rug is hand-knotted using traditional Beni M'Guild techniques: Berber women create a dense wool pile, row by row, directly on the loom, producing a structured pattern of repetitive diamonds embellished with tribal symbols. This weaving tradition, developed by the Beni M'Guild tribes of the Middle Atlas, is renowned for its meticulous symmetry and rich variety of geometric patterns.
