This vintage Taznakht Moroccan rug brings together three contrasting panels in a rich palette of burnt orange, rose red, navy, ivory, black and ochre. Its elongated composition combines bold diamond medallions with intricate hooked forms and repeating geometric borders.
The upper panel features an orange diamond framed by dark sawtooth outlines, with smaller ornaments woven through its center. A corresponding rose-red diamond anchors the lower panel. Navy corner sections, angular branches and contrasting zigzag bands give both panels depth and definition.
Between them, the central panel displays a large mirrored ivory hooked motif against a dark field. Small geometric details decorate the ivory forms, while a coral-toned surround contains repeating angular ornaments. Layered borders include X-shaped motifs, hooked forms and narrow patterned bands. Golden fringe finishes one end.
Taznakht, in Morocco’s Ouarzazate province, is known for its Amazigh weaving heritage. The region’s handmade rugs are celebrated for expressive colors, geometric designs and intricate ornament.
Hand-knotted and measuring 4 ft 10 in × 11 ft 9 in, this vintage Taznakht Moroccan rug brings pattern and warmth to a spacious hallway, long seating area or bedroom layout. Pair it with natural wood, neutral upholstery and simple furnishings to let its three-panel design stand out.

Care Instructions
Vacuum gently without a rotating brush, avoiding the fringe. Blot spills promptly with a clean, dry cloth. Consult a professional rug cleaner for deeper cleaning. A suitable rug pad is recommended.
Colors may vary slightly depending on lighting and screen settings.
1. Picking the Right Rug
Material Matters: Wool offers durability and natural stain resistance. Silk adds sheen and fineness. If your space gets a lot of foot traffic, go for harder-wearing weaves.
Size & Scale: Bigger is better — a rug that’s too small makes a room look disjointed. Let your furniture anchor the edges.
Pile & Weave: Flat-weave rugs lie low and are easier to clean; longer pile gives softness and depth but needs more upkeep.
2. Underlay & Placement
Place a good pad underneath: it prevents slipping, insulates sound, and extends rug life.
Rotate your rug every few months to even out wear and sun-fading.
3. Cleaning & Maintenance
- Vacuum regularly (without beater brush on delicate fibers).
- Blot spills immediately with a clean cloth; avoid rubbing.
- For deeper cleaning, use a mild detergent or get professional care.
- Avoid placing rugs in direct, harsh sunlight — UV will fade colors over time.
4. What to Expect Over Time
Natural fibers will mellow slightly with age — minor shedding is normal in the first few months.
Perfect symmetry and exact color match to digital images can vary; your rug is handmade, expect uniqueness.
