Vintage Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – Woven in Morocco during the mid-20th century, this elegant vintage rug features an atypical combination of nuanced lava-rock black paired with crisp ivory accents. Trailing chains of stacked lozenges comprised of minute checker motifs traverse the obscure background. As the towering chains of stacked lozenges complete their journey across the field, subtle variations are worked into the detailed patterns. Zigzagging borders line the periphery of the field creating an intimated border of sorts that supports the central composition. This extraordinary vintage mid-century rug showcases an unusual reversed color palette with sumptuous shingled pile and overlapping layers that highlight the plush texture and nuanced black lava background that is augmented with warm brown undertones.
