Magnificent Ivory Background Vintage Moroccan Berber Rug, Country of Origin: Morocco, Circa Date: Mid-20th Century – This remarkable and powerfully beautiful vintage carpet is a magnificent mid-twentieth century Moroccan rug. This Moroccan Berber carpet beautifully features many of the characteristics and qualities that typify the style – including a beautiful ivory field, characterized by lush pile – while simultaneously standing entirely on its own. For rather than featuring the dark brown or black detail lines that generally grace the ivory field of vintage Moroccan carpets, this particular vintage rug features something different: detail lines of a vibrant shade of red. This exciting departure from the conventional composition aesthetic of Moroccan carpets infuses this rug with a great deal of energy, and enhances the more traditional elements of the carpet. The vibrant red detail lines that lie within the thick ivory pile of the field give this magnificent vintage Moroccan Berber rug a unique and irresistibly exciting quality.
