Large Modern Rugs, a Moroccan Beni Ourain Large Rug, County of origin / rug type: Moroccan rug, Circa Date: Modern / Contemporary – Here is an intriguing and dynamic contemporary rug – a Moroccan piece woven in the Beni Ourain rug style. Characterized by a minimally decorated ivory field, this carpet embodies many of the qualities and characteristics considered most desirable of the Beni Ourain Moroccan rug style. Irregular line work of deep brown runs throughout the entire field of this rug, creating a lattice-like pattern that is most eye-catching for its eccentric irregularity. For rather than standing straight up and down in a predictable manner, the lattice formed by the lines in this Moroccan rug moves in irregular directions, with each line radiating from another at a different angle. The overall effect of this subtle abstraction is a carpet that deeply embodies modern notions of design and style. An appealing composition, this Beni Ourain Moroccan large modern rug, is both striking and dynamic, in its line work and in its overall design.
