Marmoucha Abstract Polychromatic Wool Carpet

Originating from the high-altitude pastures of the Middle Atlas mountains, this hand-knotted piece reflects the distinctive creative expression of the Marmoucha tribe. Departing from classic monochrome grids, the composition features an expansive, painterly arrangement of geometric color blocks set against a plush cream wool ground.

Crafted entirely from natural hand-spun wool, the carpet showcases an expressive palette of deep teal, slate indigo, muted mauve, soft sage green, and warm camel brown. The dense, high-pile construction imparts a substantial tactile presence, allowing the organic geometric forms to bleed subtly into one another along the textured surface.

Bordered by hand-twisted wool fringe at both transverse ends, this textile captures the spontaneous, intuitive nature of Amazigh weaver-led abstraction, offering a balanced dialogue between tribal heritage and contemporary art.
