Azar
A gloriously expressive, one-of-a-kind Moroccan rug with a richly layered abstract design and a seriously good colour palette.
Deep raspberry reds, dusty rose, soft blush pink and rich burgundy form the backdrop, with unexpected flashes of golden yellow, electric blue, muted sage green and dark chocolate cutting through the composition.
There's something wonderfully painterly about this one. Think abstract expressionism meets '70s textile art, with a little punk collage thrown in for good measure. Layers of irregular stripes, fragmented blocks of colour and loose, almost brushstroke-like markings overlap and interrupt one another, creating a design that feels beautifully spontaneous and full of movement.
The mix of saturated reds and softer pinks gives the rug a real warmth and depth, while those little flashes of contrasting colour stop things from feeling too uniform. Some sections are densely patterned, almost like layers of paint built up on a canvas, while others are more open and graphic. It's wonderfully unconventional, with something new to discover every time you look at it.
Handwoven in Morocco using thick wool, the rug has a beautifully plush, tactile pile. The subtle shifts in colour, texture and weave add even more depth to the design, with the handmade irregularities giving it that unmistakable character you just don't get from something mass-produced.
A brilliant piece for anyone drawn to bold interiors, unusual textiles and design with a bit of an edge. Think black leather, tubular chrome, stainless steel, dark vintage woods and sculptural furniture. Equally at home in a mid-century inspired space or bringing a hit of colour and texture to a more minimal, contemporary interior.
Part rug, part abstract painting. A beautifully offbeat statement piece that's full of colour, texture and personality, without feeling overly polished or considered.
As with all handmade rugs, slight variations in weave, shape and texture are part of its character and individuality.
In excellent new condition and ready for its next home.
