Vintage Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – This handsome vintage Moroccan rug depicts a stately latticework pattern comprised of bilinear motifs set over a snow white field. Bold striped end pieces embellished with tufted accents create a charming finish for the formal, minimalist composition. Bilinear borders and zigzagging stripes line the edges of the field harmoniously completing the sophisticated layout. The ivory-colored field creates a warm neutral background that highlights the kernelled shoe peg texture and contrasts the somber wenge brown latticework motifs. The flat-woven, striped ends complete the formal composition of this minimalist Moroccan rug. Reminiscent of the mid-century rugs popularized by European designers and proponents of classical modernism, this vintage carpet has a dynamic presence that is timeless and modern yet tribally inclined.
