Curatorial note

A graphically arresting carpet from the Aït Youssi tribe, woven on a warm salmon-terracotta ground. Two large octagonal star medallions in jet black and bright saffron yellow dominate the central field, their bold geometry creating a striking visual rhythm that sits at the intersection of tribal tradition and pure abstract design. The wide ornamental border is filled with a dense grid of small geometric cartouches in black, yellow, and ivory. Vintage and one of a kind.
