Cobalt Harlequin — Marmoucha Diamond Tiling
Cobalt Harlequin — Marmoucha Diamond Tiling (200 × 300 cm)
A luminous Marmoucha in alternating cobalt and ivory diamonds — a bold harlequin field with superb clarity. Plush, even pile delivers a velvety hand, while short flatweave aprons with natural fringe and dotted selvedge edges keep the finish authentically Atlas yet contemporary in profile.
Glyph Reading
The interlinked lozenge lattice is a classic Amazigh protection net — gates of continuity and safe passage. Repetition creates a measured cadence; the cobalt/ivory polarity heightens focus and brings joyful lift. Energetically, the pattern grounds a large space while keeping it bright and dynamic.
