Thank you
The Thanakra gallery invites you to enter and discover its collection of moroccan tribal rugs and textiles coming from their many berber tribes ( and some of arabic ascent). Also displayed are some objects of their daily life and a few African art items, all chosen on the basis of their origin, aesthetics and spirit.

The tribal rug is conceptually at the opposite of the commonly known and widely available trade pieces. It is unique, composed while woven (vs made after a pre established design), usually made of hand spun wools and built to suit a specific setting.

What matters with domestic tribal rugs is confort, both physical and visual, as also spiritual whenever symbols are built in the design. Symetry as well As even colors and precise design are no pre requisite. Hence emerge their charm, depth and sometimes mystery.
