About the Item
Rare vintage Tuareg mat handmade in the Sahara in the 1980s by nomadic artisans of the Tuareg people. Woven with thin strips of palm wood and finished with strips of natural leather, this mat represents a thousand-year-old craft tradition handed down in the heart of the desert.
Originally used inside nomadic tents to insulate from heat and protect from sand, Tuareg mats are functional but also deeply symbolic objects. Engraved geometric motifs-such as lozenges, crosses, and lines-express tribal identity and spiritual meanings through essential design.
With its large size (500×247 cm), this mat is a perfect scenic presence for indoor environments or covered outdoor spaces. It adds a natural and authentic character to contemporary homes, showrooms or editorial sets.
In good vintage condition, with signs of time testifying to the authenticity of the piece and its history.
Each Afolki item is personally selected in Morocco for artistic value and craftsmanship integrity. Authenticity guaranteed.
Ready shipping from Italy.
