Aït Zayane Tabizart — Onyx Wedding Blanket Set

From the Middle Atlas Aït Zayane tradition, this Tabizart wedding blanket recalibrates ceremony for the modern bedroom: an onyx field tufted in soft grids, scattered with hand-applied metal sequins, and traversed by polychrome Amazigh bands—diamonds, chevrons, and guard stripes—signifying blessing and protection.

Weave & Touch

Handwoven wool flat-weave with tufted pile on cotton warp. Raised tufting adds a plush hand and subtle relief; sequins catch light with ceremonial sparkle. The coordinated pillows repeat the bands at a refined scale for a cohesive, editorial presentation.
