Hand-Carved Atlas Cedar Door with Geometric Interlacing and Tawriq Arabesques
A monumental entrance door handcrafted from natural solid Atlas cedar wood. The massive door leaf showcases a multi-layered carving technique combining raised geometric polygons and star interlacing (hasba) over deeply chiseled floral arabesque backgrounds (tawriq). Framed by matching carved side pilasters and an engraved lintel, it illustrates traditional Moroccan architectural woodcraft.
