Vintage Azilal Moroccan Berber Rug
5 × 8 ft · 155 × 235 cm · Multicolour Diamond Field
A dense multicolour diamond lattice interrupted by a single off-set chequerboard band — a freely composed Azilal, hand-knotted in the Moroccan High Atlas.
Provenance and Tribal Heritage
Azilal rugs are hand-knotted by Berber women in the village workshops of the High Atlas Mountains, north-east of Marrakesh. The Azilal style is defined by free, often asymmetric geometry on a colourful ground — diamond fields, irregular grids and isolated symbols — worked in wool.
This is a vintage piece from around the 1970s in very good condition, with a soft patina.
Colour and Composition
The field is a dense all-over lattice of small diamonds, each outlined in dark wool and filled individually in a different colour — red, royal blue, gold-yellow, green-turquoise, ivory and aubergine. Across the upper third, the diamond grid is interrupted by a horizontal multicolour chequerboard band, off-set and slightly bowed. The side borders are dark aubergine-brown, unevenly wide — broader on one side than the other — a hand-woven irregularity, and an inner turquoise zigzag line frames the field. Narrow striped kilim ends close the rug top and bottom. The palette runs across red, royal blue, gold-yellow, green and turquoise, ivory, aubergine and orange.
Condition
Very good vintage condition with a soft patina. The rug has been professionally inspected and washed.
Presence in the Room
At 155 × 235 cm (3.6 m²) this is a medium format. Three settings in which it works well:
- Boho living room: in front of a sofa or layered over a larger neutral base, the colourful field brings warmth and texture into a modern interior.
- Bedroom: alongside or at the foot of the bed, the soft wool pile is comfortable underfoot.
- Reading corner or study: beneath a chair and lamp, where the diamond grid and the chequerboard band can be seen up close.
