The Meeting of Desires is a richly symbolic rug from the High Atlas, where Azilal weavers channel stories of origin, fertility, and the sacred feminine through powerful tribal glyphs. This particular piece encodes the meeting between life force and creation—evoked by dual symbols: the Womb (diamond) and the Snake (zigzag path).
These ancient Amazigh motifs are not mere patterns—they are cosmological references. The snake slithers forward to initiate creation, while the lozenge or double rhombus captures the cycle of renewal and feminine fertility.
Cheerful tones and daring asymmetry deliver warmth, while the symbolic precision anchors this rug in ritual intention. A museum-worthy narrative woven into color and wool.
