Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – Grand stacked lozenges embellished with concentric rings and fluid outlines create a blissfully graphic pattern that is offset by the plush snow-white field of this beautiful vintage rug. Humanoid figures, abstract symbols and minute devices occupy the monochromatic background, which appears between the ascendant columns. This definitive Moroccan carpet features a graphic series of abstractions that depict traditional symbols in an inventive manner. The stark combination of kohl black and ivory, which is centrally featured, gradually gives way to a series of flat-woven accents and rustic stripes that are paired with snow-white ribbed pile and plush tufted details. Traditional flat-woven end pieces and subtle striped edges confine the stacked lozenges that span the decorative field and embellish this classic vintage Moroccan rug.
