Vintage Moroccan Rug, Origin: Morocco, Circa: Mid 20th Century – Drawn in a whimsical folksy style, this elaborate vintage rug from Morocco features a formal, well-composed latticework pattern that incorporates a variety of quirky tribal motifs. The stark combination of kohl black set over an ivory ground gives the grand composition a strong presence and a bold personality. Each latticework compartment showcases a unique esoteric figure that corresponds to the neighboring elements. Graphic checkerboard bands define the geometric compartments and give the varied pattern a comforting sense of continuity. This spectacular mid-century Moroccan rug offers a glimpse into a world of symbols that is sophisticated yet accessible.
