moroccan middle atlas berber rug from mrirt. On close examination the overall heather hues of the field are made up of many shades of lilac, mauve, grey, beiges with occasional use of brown. Its small size and the presence of a small design in the centre of the upper field indicate that it could have been someone's prayer rug. The owner is well protected by the presence of a giant eye which in Berber superstition deflects evil. It is old and yet in perfect condition. Reference 2551. Size 116 x 80cms. 3ft.10in. x 2ft.8in.
