Vintage Moroccan Carpet, Origin: Morocco, Circa: Mid-20th Century – Here is a lovely and traditionally composed vintage carpet, a mid-century Moroccan composition, woven in the height of the perennially popular Beni Ourain style. Generally speaking, vintage Moroccan rugs and carpets are prized for their immediately recognizable compositions, which will often consist of ivory fields and dark brown or black detail work. This pairing of ivory and dark brown or black tends to create a powerful contrast without over-complicating the composition of the carpet. This particular example is woven very much in this tradition, and showcases its merits beautifully. A lovely shade of ivory dominates the carpet from the top to the bottom, with the only detail work being rendered as black lines. These lines form a fascinating hexagonal grid pattern, which appears throughout the carpet and gives it a definite sense of structure and solidity. Impressively woven in the height of the Beni Ourain fashion, this is a charming mid-century Moroccan rug.
