About this rug

Gray mud bricks drying beside a river. A hamada is the desert's stone plateau, and this sculpted Beni Mrirt rug lifts the same: raised blocks of pile over a clipped ground. Weavers once knotted the level ground. Zarbish raises the blocks today.

The wool is heathered, lighter and darker fibers twisted together, so the raised blocks and the clipped ground read as the same clay in two heights. The channels between blocks are firm and run across the rug in broken lines.

How we made Hamada

Gray mud bricks drying beside a river. A hamada is the desert's stone plateau, and this sculpted Beni Mrirt rug lifts the same: raised blocks of pile over a clipped ground. Weavers once knotted the level ground. Zarbish raises the blocks today.
