Turbulent lines and narrow grids supplemented with stripes and broken bands create a fantastic allover pattern as they cross this vintage mid-century Moroccan rug.

Vintage Beni Ourain Moroccan Rug, Country of Origin: Morocco, Circa Date: Mid 20th Century – This stylish mid-century vintage Moroccan rug from the High Atlas Mountain region of Morocco features soft achromatic lines and bold stripes that are combined to create an elegant allover pattern with distinct compartments, extraneous details and subtle stripes. Broken pillars, foggy striped segments and bold dividing lines create a graphic allover pattern with layers of detail and nuanced accents that mimic decorative furs. Each bold line that forms the broad grid features an undulating path with meandering details. The plush ivory-colored background is boldly offset by the saturated walnut brown details and soft gray stripes. This elegant vintage mid century rug depicts a modernist combination of abstract details and formal patterns that are rendered in a graphic achromatic style.
