Hanbel Zeyer 142/142

This unique hand-woven hanbel Zeyer (Middle Atlas) is truly one-of-a-kind, with no other like it in the world. Handcrafted by a skilled Berber woman, the piece is made entirely from flatwoven wool and stands out for its strength and lightness compared to other woven rugs. With a mix of techniques including geometric patterns and knotted points, this collector's item features a stunning repertoire of colors and designs. The hanbel is a direct import from Morocco, carefully selected during purchasing trips to the carpet souks of Marrakech. I purchase directly from local merchants at the Berber auction, bypassing intermediaries and guaranteeing the best price. While beautiful and functional, this vintage rug was not meant for production, but rather to be used and passed down through generations, with each one being a unique expression of the woman who made it. It is recommended to follow traditional cleaning methods for maintenance, such as vacuuming and using water and brown soap, and to let the sun naturally dry the kilim.
