Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – Vibrant stripes, monochromatic color blocks and colorful checkers set over a striped foundation create a diverse pattern comprised of distinct segments. The boldly colored field abruptly transitions from a series of lateral stripes to a vibrant checkerboard pattern followed by a monochromatic vermillion end piece decorated with narrow columns. Bold checkers, monochromatic stripes and prominent color blocks are juxtaposed against a subtly patterned background full of small-scale stripes and minute details. Segmented stripes, polychromatic ridges of plush pile and textural accents rendered in a diverse selection of colors abound across the brightly colored field. The eclectic striped and checkered pattern showcases a retro assortment of powder blue, vermillion, Prussian blue and ivory paired with a bold selection of secondary colors that fill in the colorful composition.
