Madder Bands — Zemmour Guard-Stripe Kilim

Madder Bands — Zemmour Guard-Stripe Kilim

Madder Bands — Zemmour Guard-Stripe Kilim (___ × ___ cm)

Classic Zemmour flatweave from the Middle Atlas (Khemisset–Rabat corridor): a saturated madder-red field articulated by horizontal guard stripes, chevrons and talisman crosses in ivory, charcoal, saffron and ember. Low profile, door-clearing, and built for high-traffic performance while preserving artisanal tactility.

Glyph Reading

Crosses and hooked lozenges encode baraka (blessing) and protection; chevrons and zigzags guide movement and reinforce boundaries. Energetically, the red ground warms and energizes a room while the banding keeps the flow ordered.

Provenance & Structure

  • Lineage / Region: Zemmour · Middle Atlas, Morocco
  • Epoch: Contemporary (2020s)
  • Dimensions: ___ × ___ cm (plus fringe)
  • Structure: Flatweave kilim with brocaded motif bands — wool weft on sturdy cotton warp
  • Palette: Madder red ground with ivory, charcoal, ochre, saffron and ember accents
  • Finish: Flat selvedge sides; hand-twisted fringe at ends
  • Pile/Height: Low, smooth profile (great under dining chairs & doors)
  • Condition: New
  • ADA-ID: [ADA-R##]

Design Vocabulary

  • Madder-red ground — warmth & presence
  • Chevron/diamond guard bands — wayfinding & protection
  • Low-profile flatweave — durable, easy to layer

Care: vacuum with suction only; rotate seasonally; use a rug pad to stabilize and protect the foundation.

Zemmour typology — banded brocade on a saturated red field, engineered for everyday use.
