Vintage Moroccan Azilal Carpet AZ08
Intriguing composition includes areas of fluorescent fibers woven amidst more typical Azilal colors. The bright areas of this vintage Moroccan carpet indicate a connection of a Talsint presence, possibly through a marriage between the two tribes. Symbolism includes male snake motifs, female open lozenge, and tent of protection. Some non-woolen fibers are present, typical of many Azilals.
