About the Item

Made with handwoven reed and camel leather in Mauritania circa 1950-1960, this 4x5 vintage square Tuareg mat is an exceptional new addition to Rug & Kilim’s collection of rare works in this weaving tradition; the legacy of one of the most sought-after Moroccan floor covering provenances among designers and collectors today. On the Design: Admirers of the craft will especially appreciate Tuareg mats as distinct works with their own rich history and unique craftsmanship. This design is also one of few in its kind to favor a minimalist approach to the primitivist Berber geometric patterns, specifically tribal motifs in deep cocoa and charred umber tones with a natural sense of depth and arresting dimensionality against the more neutral oatmeal ground. This particular work is distinguished by its square-like proportions and thick vertical columns of repeating diamond lozenges—ancient symbols traditionally used by Saharan weavers to represent the "eye" or a protective shield for the nomadic home. The mid-sized scale further connotes a particularly intricate work—likely made by a skilled weaver with meticulous attention to structural symmetry. It’s as much a collectible piece of folk art and nomadic culture as a comfortable, durable floor covering today. Condition: This vintage Moroccan Tuareg mat further enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
