Vintage Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – This spectacular vintage mid-century Moroccan rug is a beautiful example of the style, talent and creative forces required to create a pattern that is modern, timeless and joyfully abstract. This spectacular vintage Moroccan carpet features an exquisite honeycomb pattern that is constantly changing and incorporating a wider variety of quirky discontinuous lines and varied geometric figures. The thick, bold lines highlight the strong angular pattern and create a formal boundary that surrounds each geometric figure. The plush fibers of the lusciously textural field gently obscure the linear motifs and soften the intricate honeycomb pattern. Detailed flat-woven end pieces bookend the luxurious field and add a rustic cultural influence to this splendid vintage mid-century Moroccan rug.
