Vintage Ouazguita Moroccan Rug (9' x 4’ 6”)

This exquisite vintage Ouazguita rug originates from the High Atlas Mountains of Morocco, a region famed for its bold palettes and symbolic Berber artistry. It features a glowing saffron-yellow ground, dyed with precious natural saffron, upon which crimson diamond medallions unfold in layered symmetry. Intricate borders of red, ivory, and charcoal motifs frame the field, creating both structure and rhythm.

Hand-knotted from 100% hand-spun wool, the pile is sumptuously soft underfoot, a testament to the craftsmanship and fine natural fibers used by its weavers. This piece is in exceptional vintage condition, with its saffron tones shining brilliantly and its palette softened into an elegant patina with age.

The motifs—central lozenges, geometric guard borders, and protective tribal symbols—carry ancestral meanings tied to fertility, protection, and continuity. Beyond its practical beauty, this rug is a collector-worthy textile, a living piece of Moroccan heritage that merges artistry with utility.
