Antique Moroccan Rug, Country of Origin: Morocco, Circa Date: Early 20th Century — Antique Moroccan Rug, mid 19th century Antique Moroccan rugs evolved as a North African response to Turkish tribal weaving. Most of the design elements in this lovely example are, therefore, Turkish, although their overall arrangement in rows around a central stepped medallion and the rich, vibrant coloration are uniquely Moroccan. There is considerable excitement in the tonality and constant alternation of colors, as well as in the animated drawing. An excellent decorative oriental rug, especially for those who enjoy the spontaneous charm of village weaving.
