Delicate latticework lozenges and bold achromatic checkers are combined in this inventive vintage rug that was created in Morocco during the mid-20th century.

Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – This graphic vintage mid-century rug features a charming combination of achromatic ivory and woolly brown checkers that are flanked by delicate latticework motifs. Drawn in a classically Moroccan style, this outstanding rug features inventive variations and subtle details that add to the character and charm of this stylish tribal rug. The bold checkered panel, which creates an implied medallion, incorporates a series of beautifully variegated double-square checkers embellished with pigmented and non-pigmented roan details. Dainty latticework panels bookend the central checkerboard incorporating pebbled lozenges with rounded contours and geometric tile motifs with precise edges. Bold canary yellow flecks embellish the graphic achromatic field and add a touch of color to the inventive composition.
