Vintage Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – This superb vintage mid-century Moroccan rug showcases an iconic combination of exuberant minimalist details, luscious shag rug textures and restrained colors that have an alluring elegance. The sumptuous fur-like surface of the luxurious wool pile is decorated with taupe speckles and bold checkers. These isolated ponds of color are connected by meandering trails that have a strong fluidity reminiscent of long, winding rivers each on their own unpredictable journey. These exquisite abstract decorations have a charming ambiguity and a lively dynamic style. Minor flat-weave end pieces with bold red accents bookend the richly textural composition while emphasizing the classical Moroccan style of this quintessential vintage mid-century rug.
