This is a striking 100% wool handmade Moroccan Berber rug from Taznakht, a small Berber region in Morocco. It is coloured with vegetable dyes in red, orange, olive green, indigo, burgundy, light blue, ecru, yellow ochre and black. The patterns are a combination of interlocking diamond shapes, featuring multi-coloured stripes, with a solid blue border at either end. The overall look could be described as a psychadelic-effect patchwork.

It is woven by skilled artisans using a traditional hand loom, so only has tassels on one side, which is formed from the excess warp threads - there are loops on the other side, where the weaving is started from. Additionally, the rug is completely reversible (it doesn't have a right side and a wrong side).

This a unique item, and a work of art - no two rugs are the same - and will make a unique statement in your home, whether it complements your shabby chic or ethnically-inspired boho decor or is a contrast to your neutral colour palette. It's also a playful addition to a children's bedroom and provides a classy floor-covering to suit a 1960s or 1970s retro style.
