Marmoucha Scalloped Mosaic — Chromatic Atlas
Marmoucha Scalloped Mosaic — Chromatic Atlas (250 × 150 cm)
A jubilant Marmoucha field from the Middle Atlas composed of rounded, scalloped color caps arranged in a tessellated mosaic. Each lobe reads like a domed tile—an Amazigh riff on order and play— set over a natural ivory ground with hand-twisted fringe.
Weave & Touch
Hand-knotted in lanolin-rich Atlas wool. The pile is luxuriously cushioned and clipped to emphasize the soft domed silhouettes; the surface catches light in a lively, gem-like rhythm without sacrificing comfort underfoot.
