About the Item
This rare vintage Tuareg mat was handmade in the Sahara in the 1980s by nomadic artisans of the Tuareg people. Woven from palm wood reeds and sewn with thin strips of natural leather, it represents a craft tradition deeply rooted in the lives of Saharan tribes.
Originally used as lining for the interior of tents, the mats protected against heat and sand while offering symbolic and spiritual language. The engraved geometric patterns-such as lozenges and crosses-reflect the cultural heritage and aesthetic identity of the Tuareg civilization.
With its generous size (480×290 cm), this mat is ideal as a centerpiece in stylish interiors or covered outdoor spaces. Perfect for contemporary, editorial or wabi-sabi-flavored environments, it brings a strong, textural presence.
In good vintage condition, shows signs of use consistent with age, attesting to its authenticity.
Each Afolki piece is personally selected in Morocco for its aesthetic value and craftsmanship integrity. Authenticity guaranteed.
Ready shipping from Italy.
