This piece is more than a rug — it is a woven eyewitness. The year 1961 was directly woven into the textile by the weaver — an extremely rare detail that can hardly be found anymore. In combination with the dense symbolism and the generous area, this is a real collector's item. Anyone who owns this rug is holding a piece of lively Berber history in their hands — signed, authentic, uncopyable. In detail:

  • Woven year: “1961” — rare and documented
  • Symbolism: Central symbol — spiritual eye & memory carrier
  • Pile: Medium density, soft, with honest aging
  • Technique: Hand knotted on a vertical loom
  • structure: Irregular rhythm, typical of older originals
  • Measurements: 195 × 390 cm (6'5" × 12'8")
  • weight: 26 kg (57.3 lbs)

“Spirit of 61” brings history to rooms.
This rug looks like a silent witness: its aged surface, the central symbol and the woven year don't speak loudly — they make you feel. Ideal for spaces with depth: old buildings, studios, collectors' homes or places of reflection. Particularly strong on exposed concrete, clay walls or dark wood.
“Spirit of 61” isn't a trend piece — it's here to stay.

We deliver worldwide — free of charge. Each rug is shipped safely and insured from our warehouse in Austria. Depending on the region, the delivery time is approx. 7 to 21 working days. Customs duties may apply outside the EU and are to be borne by the recipient.

Berber art with dating — depth, origin & symbolism

“Spirit of 61” was made in 1961 in the middle Atlas Mountains — in the traditional way, with a tight weave of natural wool. The symbolism is clear, raw and free. Particularly remarkable:

  • Woven year 1961: documented origin
  • Central protection symbol: energetic focus point
  • Natural sheep wool: warm, dense, grown
  • Pile: medium density with visible aging — real patina

A rug that not only dresses rooms, but also carries history. exclusive For real. Spiritually.

nomades7 — The language of silence.

Nomades7 is more than a brand — it is a curated collection of individual textile pieces with origin, attitude and soul. Each rug is made entirely by hand by Berber women in the Moroccan Atlas Mountains. Alexander Heritsch selects these pieces locally — not based on their appearance, but on the basis of energy, symbolism and history. We believe that spaces need more than beautiful things — they need meaning. That's why we don't sell mass-produced goods, but woven time. Each piece is unique that not only lies — but also works.
