Moroccan Talsint Rug - 431 x 185 cm

Talsint carpets, also called ait bou ichaouen carpets, are typical of the style of berber houses. They belong to the tribes of aït hamou ousaid, aït hadou belahsen, belboul, aït saïd oulahsen, aït ali ousaid and el bour, located in the northeast of morocco. In this region the winters are very cold and snowy and in the whole year the climate is cold and humid, so talsint rugs are sometimes shaggy with amazing quality of natural wool base and flat weave edge.today, it is rare and difficult to find a vintage piece from this enchanting tribe. The weaver acquired and developed her skills and techniques with time and lots of practice combining the intuition she had in the 70s that can never be compared from a newly made rug. Every little detail is unique and tells a story or meaning. It is very common to find the “saw” symbol in this kind of rug. It is a symbol of metalworkers as the berbers believe that metal carries away energy. Please note: delivery is free but there may be customs charges to pay.
