From the heart of the Figuig province, home to the Ait Bou Ichaouen tribe, emerges the Talsint Moroccan rug, named after the rural town of Talsint in Northeastern Morocco, celebrated for its vibrant hues, notably purple, orange, and red.

In a delightful blend of cozy conviviality and Bohemian Hygge, this hand-knotted wool vintage Talsint Moroccan rug transforms any space into a cozy haven. Infused with intricate tribal designs and joyful colors, the purple backdrop sets the stage for a visual spectacle, adorned with a myriad of ambiguous tribal symbols—diamonds, Hamsa (camel tracks), concentric lozenges, eight-point stars, and Burdock motifs. Enclosed with a comb ladder motif representing the male's protective presence, this vintage Moroccan rug harmoniously intertwines male and female motifs, symbolizing fertility, protection, and the sanctuary of family. A narrative woven with ancient symbolism and bohemian hygge, this woven wonder invites you to experience generations of cultural beliefs in a warm and inviting atmosphere.

Symbolism in this Talsint rug is rich and diverse, with diamond motifs representing beauty and femininity, Hamsa (Camel Tracks) signifying protection and fortune, eight-point stars reflecting cosmic harmony and happiness, concentric lozenges representing femininity and fertility, Burdock motifs symbolizing protection, and concentric lozenges embodying interconnectedness and unity. These age-old symbols, steeped in Berber tradition, creates a visual symphony that tells tales of cultural richness and artistic finesse.
