Three colorful diamond medallions form a central chain across the ivory field of this 250 × 150 cm Azilal wool rug. Branching motifs flank them in red, mauve, mustard, pale grey and black, creating a balanced composition with varied details.

Provenance & Craft

Presented by Atelier des Atlas, this wool pile rug belongs to the Azilal weaving tradition of Morocco’s High Atlas. Narrow woven end bands carry two rows of pink-and-ivory accents. Long cream twisted tassels finish the near short end, while shorter fringe is visible at the opposite edge.

Design Vocabulary

Stepped outlines enclose the central medallions, whose nested colors alternate between dark borders and brighter interiors. Along either side, slender stems support descending diagonal branches. The repeated structure gives the design rhythm, while changes in color and proportion distinguish each motif.
