Here is another carpet from the Tadla region in central Morocco. As many other such carpets, it draws its architecture and elements from ancient arabic and berber themes. These have evolved in time: large uneven losanges made of multicolored checkerboard, lines of bulbs and no frame. Fairly recent, this carpet is based on a non traditional but contemporaryr set of colors; these drawn from what is available with industrial yarns, new or recycled. The use of the checkerboards in several places of this carpet is a direct inheritance from ancient arabic flat weavings. Period: post 2000 – Dimensions: ca 205 x 130 cm / 82″ x 52″
