About the Item
This rare vintage Tuareg mat from the 1960s, made entirely by hand from woven reed and camel skin laces, comes from the Mauritanian Sahara. Large in size (440 × 220 cm), it was originally used as flooring in nomadic tents, combining functionality and symbolism. Geometric patterns etched into the leather tell tribal stories and represent protection and belonging. Each element is made from natural materials and ancestral techniques passed down orally. The contrast between golden rush and dark leather creates a powerful graphic design, perfect for contemporary, minimalist interiors . It is ideal both as a rug and as a wall tapestry. Condition is excellent: unrestored, it has an authentic patina consistent with its age. Afolki direct sourcing, without intermediaries, to support artisan communities in the Sahara. A rare and cultural decorative object, perfect for collectors, designers and galleries. International shipping available with professional packaging.
