Vintage Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – Crafted in an elegant, rustic style, this posh vintage Moroccan rug is an exquisite visual record of Moroccan culture and aspects of daily life in tight-knit tribal communities, as well as the aesthetics prized by Moroccan weavers of vintage rugs. Geometric animals, eye motifs and important duality symbols are showcased in individual frames created by the checkered latticework grid. The bold combination of ivory and coffee brown emphasizes the pure cultural style of these essential symbols that represent important life-giving items and intangible forces. The graphic simplicity of these age-old designs has a timeless modernity while the minimalist composition ensures that broad open spaces of the plush ribbed pile are featured prominently alongside the intricate tribal symbols.
