Antique Rug From Chichaoua, Haouz, Morocco, 160 X 260 Cm, Hand-knotted Wool, Berber Work

Old Chichaoua carpet, end of the 19th century, beginning of the 20th century, Haouz region and the Atlantic plains.
Rare piece measuring 160 cm wide by 260 cm long, in wool on wool; In the triangle formed by Marrakech, El Jadida, and Agadir, we find the carpet of Haouz of Marrakech, carpet of Gulad de Bousbaa, Chichaoua or more in the south of Chennana, carpets of Aït Immour.
This type of carpet presents a kind of wandering of the patterns in the fields.
Haouz rugs inscribe the image of traced signs. Old Chichaouas are characterized by an old pink and straw background, inscribed with uncertain lines of great disorder, full of mystery, harshness and violence.
We guess human postures, many animals, vases and mountains ..... But this disorder is only order and purity.
The illiteracy and isolation of these Berber women were expressed in the silence of the very construction of carpets by an abstract tribal iconography deeply buried since the dawn of time in their collective consciousness.
These rugs tell the story of women's lives, each woman creates her rug, her rugs, which makes each piece unique and singular.
(Far from the commercial criteria of today)
These women prisoners of their conditions express themselves in their creation thanks to their imagination making works of art worthy of the greatest museums of modern art and contemporary art.
These rough, clumsy, sometimes clumsy rugs that are the Chichaoua works belong to a world apart.
These fascinating works, this virtuosity is of the order of the conceptual.
