Vintage Talsint Rug / 267 x 144 cm

This vintage rug from the Aït Bou Ichaouen tribe reads like a visual journal, woven with intention and mystery. Its background glows with softly shifting shades of burnt red, an earthy canvas for the symbols and stories that follow. The tale begins with abstract motifs and tribal glyphs, inviting interpretation, before giving way to a flow of meandering lozenges, each slightly varied in size and rhythm, like thoughts drifting across time.

Woven in tones of black, ivory, and orange, with occasional flecks of other hues, the rug is a rich narrative tapestry. The piece is framed with a striking black and white checkered border, creating a sense of closure to the weaver’s tale.

A soulful expression of craftsmanship, this rug has areas of gentle age wear, marks of time that only deepen its vintage spirit. Finished with braided tassels, and made with a low to medium pile, this is a piece that hums quietly with memory and meaning.
