A rather unusual Berber rug from the Ait Sgogou tribe, located in the Moroccan Middle Atlas, distinguished by a rich red open field embellished at both ends by contorting horizontal lines in the shades of yellow, orange and rose. The end skirts are decorated by extra-weft brocading in gold and turquoise.
