Nahif
THIS RUG'S STORY:
Nahlif means "slim" in Arabic, and that is exactly what this runner is - long and very narrow! A creation that is made near the Talsint region of Morocco, this beautiful runner is in great condition. It is hard to find a neutral vintage Moroccan rug in a long size. This one comes in at about 2.5 by 11', and would make the perfect hallway runner!
ABOUT MOROCCAN RUGS:
Each vintage Moroccan rug is hand woven and knotted by Berber women of the tribal region specified. This level of craftsmanship can take weeks or months to complete a single rug. Weaving techniques have been passed down through the generations. The patterns, designs, and colors in each rug vary with each rug, weaver, and tribe – so each piece is truly a unique work of art and 2 pieces will never be the same. Often these rugs have been handed down through the families who created them, and have been uncovered from the mountain and rural areas of Morocco.
