This enrapturing vintage Moroccan Kilim has a bold modernist composition with symbolic motifs that are randomly placed across the orange and steel gray field.

Vintage Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – Superbly styled and decorated, this vintage Moroccan Kilim has a thoroughly modern presence that extends from the opposing color scheme to the cryptic symbols and the balanced composition, which is layered with randomly placed decorations in the tradition of vintage area rugs from Morocco. The warm fire-glow orange ground displays swirling abrashed areas that are covered with vaporous veils of color. These warm hues are tempered by opposing periwinkle accents and graphite gray segments that bookend the field. These textural flat-weave details are accompanied by checkered lozenges, quirky eye motifs and ladyfinger embellishments that line the edges of the composition. This vintage Moroccan Kilim is a dazzling example of the country’s modern designs that are vivacious, colorful and charming.
