About this piece

​Woven in the high-altitude territory of the Ait Ouaouzguite tribe (centered around the historic weaving town of Taznakht), this flatweave is a virtuoso display of precision. Taznakht weavers are legendary for their tight, flat-woven foundations and their ability to embroider ultra-fine, microscopic details directly on the loom using a supplementary-weft brocading technique. ​
