Each diamond or lozenge form - executed in a palette of ochres, saffrons, indigo blues, and brick reds - represents symbolic “fields” or “plots” of land, reflecting the rug’s name. The weaver’s improvisational use of varied color sequences and zigzag patterning gives this piece a dynamic, painterly quality emblematic of Berber artistry from the Middle Atlas region.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work likely originates from a Zemmour or Zaiane weaving group, known for their mastery of intricate weft-float designs and balanced use of both tribal symbolism and modernist abstraction. Kharita rugs are among Morocco’s most visually complex flatweaves, often woven by women for dowry or ceremonial use rather than for export. The design serves as a cartographic metaphor - mapping community, memory, and territory within the woven plane.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"momomoroccodesigns","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43969122238498,"sku":null,"price":2000.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0812\/7886\/1346\/files\/Rug11.jpg?v=1752468046","url":"https:\/\/momomorrocodesigns.com\/products\/momo-11","provider":"momo morocco designs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
