Vintage Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Circa: Mid 20th Century – This beautiful mid-century modern vintage Moroccan rug was woven in the high Atlas mountainous region of Morocco. This mid 20th century vintage area rug from Morocco depicts a variety of abstract geometric characters and cryptic rectilinear motifs. The angular glyphs feature a tasteful combination of umber brown and ashen gray that is paired with a chic selection of high-chroma cranberry red and cornflower blue. These vivid accent colors contrast the achromatic stripes and symbols that are a dominant force within the composition. The intriguing motifs and varied colors are strongly offset by the luxurious ivory background. Subtle colors and strong textures appear throughout the broad field. These varied textures range from plush pile tufts to striped flat-woven accents that add dimension and detail to the nuanced composition.
