Minimalist Diamond Pattern Vintage Berber Moroccan Beni Ourain Wool Shag Pile Carpet 45738

Vintage Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – This minimalist Moroccan rug features a stark triad of latticework chains depicting a series of interconnected lozenges used for protection against the evil eye. Kohl-black latticework chains that possess a chalky transparency adorn the plush ivory field creating a formal column flanked by minor pillars that support the central structure while mirroring the precise linear latticework motifs. The fleecy napped pile creates a plush canvas for the stark linear patterns, kohl black motifs and geometric symbols that adorn the chic ivory field. Segmented color bands and rustic flat-woven end pieces decorated with graphic stripes underscore the tribal traditions that are at the foundation of this stark vintage rug from Morocco. This vintage rug epitomizes the timeless, unadorned style that made Moroccan carpets so popular with modern and mid-century designers.
