Vintage Zayane rugs, particularly those from the mid-20th century, are highly sought after for their authenticity and connection to a rich history of craftsmanship.
These rugs are more than just decorative items; they are considered cultural artifacts that tell stories, reflect rituals, and showcase the heritage of the Atlas Mountains. Many weavers believed that these rugs held powers to ward off evil and protect the human spirit.
Zayane rugs are recognized for their bold geometric patterns, featuring diamond shapes and other tribal symbols that can convey messages about nature, fertility, spirituality, and beliefs. The colors are often vibrant, ranging from rich reds to earthy browns and blues, with occasional accents of other hues.
