An antique Mauritanian or Tuareg rug, with its XXL size dating from the 1950s, elongated and expansive.

Entirely handmade by Tuareg women, these incredibly large rugs are used to protect the ground when tents are pitched and to provide comfortable seating.
Made of dried palm fibers, finely split into small strips—resembling tiny wooden slats—along with leather, fabric, and threads, we love its exceptional patina, which testifies to its previous uses and past lives.
The entire rug is woven with delicacy and incredible patience; it is a long and painstaking process, obviously taking several months, given its spectacular size.
The rug features unique and distinctive graphic patterns.
We love the details of colored threads that add an extraordinary touch to any interior.
The rug shows signs of use and wear, making it a unique piece.
It is slightly wavy in places, as it has been rolled for a long time. It will need to be gently loosened over time, with a little moisture and weight to relax the overly curled fibers.

Please refer to the numerous photos for the overall condition of the rug.
