Three sets of nested diamonds run down the center of this 300 × 200 cm Marmoucha wool rug. Narrow gray-taupe channels separate the raised bands of warm cream pile, giving the repeating forms a clear outline.

Provenance & Craft

From Atelier des Atlas, this handwoven Amazigh rug pairs raised wool pile with recessed flatwoven channels. A narrow gray-taupe edge and spaced cream tassels are visible at the near short end.

Design Vocabulary

Each group begins with a small raised diamond. The surrounding bands widen until their diagonals meet neighboring forms or reach the sides, where they read as broad chevrons. The close palette emphasizes the contrast between the raised pile and the recessed weave.
