This exquisite pile rug is a refined example of Taznakht craftsmanship, hailing from the Siroua region of the High Atlas mountains. Renowned for their superior wool quality and high knot density, Taznakht rugs are considered the “aristocrats” of Berber weaving. This piece features a striking, deep indigo blue field—a color often associated with wisdom and protection—anchored by a complex central rosette medallion in shades of saffron yellow, rust, and ivory.

The composition is highly structured and symmetrical, reflecting the meticulous skill of the weaver. The central medallion is flanked by stepped corner spandrels filled with checkerboard patterns, creating a “window” effect that draws the eye inward. The field is surrounded by multiple intricate borders featuring geometric floral motifs and eight-pointed stars, symbolizing fertility and spiritual harmony. The precision of the knotting creates a sharp, high-definition design that rivals formal city carpets while maintaining a tribal soul.

Hand-knotted from 100% natural wool, the rug possesses a dense, velvety pile that feels luxurious and substantial. The rich color palette, dominated by the rare blue tone, gives the piece a regal presence. It is a timeless work of textile art that brings sophistication and depth to any interior, perfectly suited for a formal living room, a study, or a bedroom seeking a touch of elegance and history.
