The Baklava rug, a stunning vintage Taznakht piece, is named after the process of making baklava, a many-layered dessert that requires patience, precision, and many intricate steps. Taznakht rugs are known for taking a long time to create, usually from a few months to a year.
Handwoven around 40 years ago, this rug showcases the hallmark tight knotting method (higher knots per square inch) of Taznakht rugs, resulting in a denser, more durable weave. Made from premium-quality wool—widely regarded as the finest in Morocco—and dyed using wildcrafted plant-based pigments, it has stunning organic beauty.
Taznakht rugs are prized for their rarity and superior craftsmanship, making them highly sought after by collectors and designers. As the number of Berber weavers in this region continues to decline, truly authentic handwoven Taznakht rugs are becoming increasingly rare. This adds to the investment value of this rug.
This is a flatweave rug and optimal for high traffic spaces or areas where furniture is moved frequently such as under dining room tables.
