About the Item

This 1970s Tuareg mat is a magnificent example of nomadic Saharan craftsmanship, woven entirely by hand from natural reed and strips of leather according to ancient techniques guarded by Tuareg communities. Il suo sofisticato linguaggio geometrico, composto da simboli che richiamano protezione, armonia e orientamento, crea un ritmo visivo di grande eleganza, capace di valorizzare sia ambienti moderni sia spazi dal carattere più materico. Le importanti dimensioni la rendono ideale come tappeto scenografico, arazzo murale o elemento centrale in progetti di interior design ad alto impatto culturale. Selezionata personalmente da Afolki in Nord Africa, questa stuoia vintage rappresenta un oggetto autentico e raro, apprezzato da architetti, collezionisti e professionisti del settore. Preserved in excellent condition compatible with its age, it carries with it the history and poetry of the desert.
