Textural details from neighboring areas overlap the strong latticework pattern obscuring the bold lines and creating an elegant roan pattern reminiscent of luxurious furs. This vintage Moroccan rug depicts an elegant combination of textures and geometric patterns rendered in a timeless combination of ivory and walnut brown. Charming fringes and a flat-woven end piece add an air of worldliness to this definitively modern carpet created in Morocco.
