This is an exquisite, hand-woven Handira (Moroccan Wedding Blanket/Tapestry), a type of flatweave popular in the Middle and High Atlas regions. Unlike high-pile rugs, this piece is celebrated for its lightweight feel, rich texture, and geometric precision.

• Style and Origin: Handira (Moroccan Flatweave/Tapestry). Known for horizontal stripes and subtle embellishments. The flatweave technique is often associated with the Kilim style.
• Design Motif: The design features a bold composition of various width horizontal stripes. Within these larger bands, tiny, scattered geometric diamond (lozenge) motifs are woven in contrasting colors, adding traditional Berber symbolism and texture.
• Color Palette: The palette is warm and saturated, dominated by rich Desert Tones: various shades of Burnt Orange, Saffron Yellow, and Deep Red/Rust, accented with crisp white, blue, and brown lines. The natural variation in the hand-dyed wool gives the piece character and depth.
• Texture and Material: It is a low-pile, flat-woven textile made from high-quality wool, sometimes mixed with cotton, making it durable, lightweight, and easily reversible.
