This is an extraordinary, hand-woven Taznakht (Ait Ouaouzguite) carpet from the Southern High Atlas, celebrated for its unique Glaoui construction. This masterful technique involves blending different weave types (flatweave/kilim, knotted pile, and embroidery) within defined geometric blocks, creating a stunning 3D texture.

• Style and Origin: Taznakht / Glaoui (Southern High Atlas). This style is the pinnacle of complex Moroccan weaving, known for its structured layout that showcases the weaver’s entire repertoire of skills.

• Design Motif: A highly structured, all-over patchwork of individual rectangular blocks. The design features a large, central horizontal panel in red, surrounded by a grid of smaller square blocks in blue and multi-color. Each block contains a unique geometric pattern, including diamonds, checkerboards, and zigzags.

• Color Palette: A rich and vibrant palette, dominated by Royal Blue and Deep Red/Rust, accented with saffron yellow, white, and hints of green. The colors are bold and highly saturated.

• Texture and Material: It features a dynamic mixed-pile texture, with some blocks being dense pile and others being flat-woven (kilim), providing a rich, dimensional feel. It is made from high-quality wool.
