About the Item
Rare vintage Tuareg mat handmade in the Sahara in 1985 by nomadic artisans of the Tuareg people. Woven with palm wood slats and stitched with strips of natural leather, this mat represents a craft tradition rooted in the heart of the African desert.
Originally used inside tents to insulate against heat and sand, Tuareg mats are functional but also deeply symbolic objects. Engraved geometric motifs-such as lozenges and crosses-tell stories of tribal identity and spirituality through essential design.
With its large dimensions (494×235 cm), this mat becomes a textural and scenic presence ideal for contemporary interiors, ethnic settings or editorial spaces. Also perfect for covered terraces or showrooms.
In good vintage condition, with signs of wear consistent with age and use. Never been restored.
Each Afolki piece is personally selected in Morocco for its artistic value and authenticity. Ready shipping from Italy.
