Vintage Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – This classic mid-century Moroccan carpet features a multitude of protection symbols and geometric figures that emphasize the Moroccan’s expertise in creating precise linear patterns. Latch hook lozenges provide an overarching pattern that divides the field and creates a defined space decorated with stars, including the technically-challenging five-pointed star, which is one of several traditional symbols of happiness. Geometric borders frame the field and complement the charming animals, amulets and various symbols used for protection against the evil eye.
