Vintage Beni Mellal Flatweave / 280 x 130 cm
This vintage Beni Mellal hanbel captures the essence of nomadic simplicity through its rhythm of irregular stripes and earthy tones. Woven in soft, warm hues of burnt orange, faded carmine and pale sage, its palette glows gently like the shifting tones of a sunlit plain. Charcoal lines break the softness with quiet strength, grounding the composition in contrast.
The order of colors appears intuitively chosen, an organic cadence that resists symmetry in favor of storytelling. Hidden within its bands are embedded woven symbols, a whisper from the weaver, while a single row of piled knots near the center adds texture and intention.
Finished with thick, hand-braided tassels, this flatweave is both refined and rustic, a minimal yet expressive piece that brings warmth and character to any space.
