Zemmour-Style Rug “ANZAR” | 370 × 160 cm | Machine-Made Artistry

Bold. Graphic. Unexpected.
ANZAR — named after the Amazigh rain deity — is a striking machine-made rug that beautifully echoes the spirit of traditional hand-knotted Zemmour carpets. Its warm terracotta base, vibrant jewel-toned motifs and expressive borders create a rich visual rhythm that feels both ancient and refreshingly modern.

Although not hand-knotted, this piece carries the same storytelling language: layered diamonds, tribal emblems, and dynamic geometrics — all arranged in a palette that dances between burnt orange, emerald, turquoise, deep violet, saffron and ink black. The colour play is simply irresistible, and the texture surprisingly lush, with a dense, soft pile that commands attention.

A true 370 × 160 cm showpiece, ANZAR is perfect for large living areas, bedrooms, studios or gallery-style interiors that crave warmth, pattern and personality.

STORY

At the criée in Marrakech — where chaos, colour and bargaining blend into one — this rug immediately stood out. Amidst piles of hand-knotted treasures, this machine-made carpet was quietly waiting on the side. But its colour story… its boldness… its pure graphic joy… I just couldn’t walk past it.

Even though it wasn’t made by hand, it carried the soul of a Zemmour: those fiery tones, the layered diamond medallions, the lively borders. A beautiful reminder that Moroccan design doesn’t fit into a single box — sometimes authenticity is also about intuition, eye, and emotion.

And this one had all three.
