Classic Brown and Cream Vintage Moroccan Shag Rug 47097

Vintage Moroccan Rug, Origin: Morocco, Mid-20th Century – This elegant vintage mid-century Moroccan rug showcases a magnificent allover latticework net accented by intensely meaningful symbols that have strong graphic qualities and modern appeal. The plush alabaster field is crisscrossed by a net of wide strap work bands with patterned decorations that emphasize the rich, luxurious texture of the flowing pile. This graphic latticework pattern is infused with ancient tribal symbols and cryptic details. Even the protected latticework cells represent the lozenge, one of the oldest symbols depicting the human form. Towering strap work accents line the edges of the field and display textural patterns, zigzagging snake motifs and strong monochrome color blocks that highlight the fleecy bistre hues and creamy ground. Like most beloved Moroccan rugs, this exquisite vintage carpet incorporates ancient lore and displays archaic motifs in a modern, universally appealing manner.
