Large Contemporary Moroccan Carpet, Origin: Morocco, Circa: Early 21st Century – Here is an appealing and beautifully composed contemporary carpet – a Moroccan rug, woven in the Beni Ourain style. Despite being a contemporary carpet, this example effortlessly delivers the unique and exciting beauty of that timeless style. Characterized by ivory fields and crisscrossing detail lines of brown, Beni Ourain rugs and carpets have been an important style in the rug world for decades – and never more so than now. Because of the inherent minimalism and abstract qualities that one finds in these carpets, they are beautifully suited to contemporary interior spaces. This particular example effectively communicates these qualities. While most of the lines are arranged in a regular grid pattern, there are certain discrepancies that invite a closer look. It is these small eccentricities that give these carpets such an air of the abstract; because they are so minimally adorned, every aspect of the detail work affects the overall impression of the entire carpet. An excellent example, this contemporary Moroccan rug boasts a beautiful composition.
