Description
A handwoven vintage Zemmour flatweave from Morocco’s central plains, and the largest piece I’ve listed: 7'10" × 5'7" (240 × 169 cm), weighing 17.6 lbs. Selected for texture, scale, and exact-piece character, with final color confirmed by video before payment is captured.
Materials
Wool from Zemmour region, Morocco.
Construction
Handwoven as a flatweave. Dimensions: 240 × 169 cm (approx. 7'10" × 5'7"). Weight: 8.0 kg.
Condition
Sold as a used vintage piece. Colour is mellowed from its original strength but even across the field, not patchy. The red still reads as true red. Red wool fringe at both ends is matted and uneven, with strands lost in places. This is the most worn part of the rug. The field is clean and unmarked. Side borders run complete down both edges, and the ends are finished. There are no holes or cuts. Loose supplementary-weft ends appear across the reverse where the motifs terminate. These are original to the construction, not damage. This is a thin, flat, foldable flatweave rather than a cushioned pile rug.
Provenance
Confirmed as a Zemmour piece at acquisition. The rug is consistent with the tradition’s red ground, bold large-scale ivory geometry, and strong contrast. No named weaver or workshop is documented, so this is a regional attribution rather than a documented chain of custody. Region: Zemmour (Attributed) Tradition: Flatweave
Care
Shake out or vacuum the front on low suction with the rotating brush off. Never vacuum the back or run a beater bar over the raised motifs. Do not pull the loose ends on the reverse; snipping flush is safer than tugging. Spot-clean with cold water and mild soap, blotting rather than rubbing, and test a corner first. Professional wool cleaning is recommended for a full wash. Store rolled, not folded, and keep out of prolonged direct sun.
