Vintage Moroccan Runner Rug 47978

Vintage Beni Ourain Runner Moroccan Rug, Morocco, c. Mid-Twentieth Century – Here is a beautiful vintage carpet – a mid-twentieth century Moroccan carpet, woven by the Beni Ourain tribesmen of Morocco’s Atlas Mountains. This style of carpet is especially popular, and is widely sought after by collectors and homeowners who admire such pieces for their distinctively modernist aesthetic. Generally speaking, authentic mid-century Moroccan rugs and carpets woven in the Beni Ourain style will feature ivory fields and detail work rendered in either black or dark brown. Some pieces freely incorporate abstract, eccentric detail elements, which have their origins in the tribal heritage of the Beni Ourain. This particular rug is an exciting example of the style, featuring a beautiful ivory field and a complex series of tribal detail elements. The interplay of the exciting tribal design elements against the ivory field infuse this Moroccan rug with great energy. A beautiful example, this vintage Moroccan runner rug boasts an exciting and timeless composition.
