Vintage Beni Ourain Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid-Twentieth Century – Here is a charming and beautifully composed vintage carpet – a mid-century Moroccan rug, woven in the height of the enduringly popular Beni Ourain style. Characterized by an expansive, simple ivory field, this stately carpet boasts the finest qualities of minimalist design, its subtle detail work vaguely suggestive in a highly restrained manner. A lattice work pattern of dark brown lines, finely woven, cuts across the entire field, but in an utterly unobtrusive manner. Rather than characterizing the design of the carpet, the dark brown detail lines instead imbue the entire piece with a fine structure, beautifully complementing its soft tones. A beautifully simple mid-century Moroccan rug, this delightful piece is a charming example.
