This is an exceptional, hand-woven Taznakht runner, showcasing the meticulous craftsmanship of the Southern High Atlas weavers. It combines the durability of flatweave with the plush texture of knotted pile in a sophisticated, linear design.

• Style and Origin: Taznakht Runner (Ait Ouaouzguite / Glaoui style). Known for its elaborate horizontal banding and masterful blend of weaving techniques.

• Design Motif: A highly structured design featuring repeating horizontal bands. Bands of natural cream/white flatweave alternate with densely patterned bands. These patterned sections include intricate geometric motifs (diamonds, zigzags) and raised, symbolic figures in pile, creating a rich textural contrast. The entire runner is framed by detailed, multi-layered borders.

• Color Palette: A vibrant and traditional palette featuring Deep Red, Navy Blue, Saffron Yellow, and Burnt Orange, set against the clear background of the Natural Cream/White wool bands.

• Texture and Material: It exhibits a distinct mixed-weave texture, combining a flatweave (kilim) base with raised, knotted pile motifs. This technique provides both visual depth and tactile richness. Made from high-quality wool.
