Vintage Beni MGuild Rug - 330 x 190 cm

Vintage Beni M'Guild rug | Handwoven wool rug adorned with a large diamond pattern This vintage Beni M'Guild rug stands out with a vast network of diamonds, where bold navy lines unfold against an ivory and powder pink background, delicately aged over time. Each diamond is embellished with small tribal motifs in shades of navy and grey, while a border composed of tiny geometric symbols frames the whole, echoing, on a smaller scale, the rhythm of the central pattern. Hand-knotted in wool by Berber women from the Beni M'Guild tribe in the Middle Atlas of Morocco, this rug showcases a structured weaving technique, presented here in generous and bold proportions. The soft wear of the pile and the subtly faded hues are authentic signs of its age, the result of decades of use and careful maintenance. With its large diamond pattern and delicately aged powder pink tones, this vintage Beni M'Guild rug brings a striking aesthetic and an authentic story to interiors that value artisanal craftsmanship. Authentic Beni M'Guild artisanal know-how Each rug is hand-knotted according to the traditional techniques of the Beni M'Guild: Berber women shape a dense wool pile, row by row, directly on the loom, incorporating a diamond structure punctuated with tribal symbols. This tradition, unique to the Beni M'Guild tribes of the Middle Atlas, is characterised by rigorous symmetry and a rich repertoire of geometric patterns, presented here in bold dimensions. The regularity of the diamond network and the presence of borders adorned with symbols reflect the meticulous approach, imbued with meanings, that defines Beni M'Guild weaving. The light wear and soft patina of the rug attest to its authenticity and artisanal origin.
