Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – Two seemingly unrelated patterns are combined in the dark borders and airy field that dominates the composition of this innovative vintage rug from Morocco. The beautiful layered composition creates the appearance that two unrelated patterns were placed together with the field and borders representing two separate elements. Stark repeating patterns feature vivid ultramarine blue details that contrast the neutral background while staggered checkers, broken lines and decorative dots and bars arranged in stout columns decorate the clear ivory field. Discontinuous stripes and interrupted linear motifs provide a constant source of visual interest while the cocoa brown and ivory borders create a grounded frame for this exceptional vintage Moroccan rug.
