Anon.

( Antique photograph).

2 North African Berber ladies wearing their traditional dress + hookah pipe.

Date. (c.1860).

Europe. Image size [8 1/2 x 11ins]. Original albumen photograph with 2 printer's creases.

The Berber tribes traditionally weave kilims. The tapestry maintains the traditional appearance and distinctiveness of the region of origin of each tribe, which has in effect its own drawings. The textile of plain weave is represented by a wide variety of stripes, and more rarely by geometrical patterns such as triangles and diamonds. Additional decorations such as sequins or fringes, are typical of Berber weave in Morocco. The nomadic and semi-nomadic lifestyle of the Berbers is very suitable for weaving kilims. The customs and traditions differ from one region to another. ......£170.00
