Vintage Berber Tattoo Design Moroccan Beni Ourain Rug 45999

Vintage Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – Reminiscent of the minimalist Moroccan carpets popularized by the fathers of classical modernism, this striking vintage rug features a creamy white field divided into geometric quadrants. A large x-shaped intersection rendered in a softly feathered hue of walnut brown dramatically divides the background while creating a bold focal point. The stark white field showcases a handful of isolated symbols, including a branching bereket and symbolic burdock motif with extended limbs that are designed to catch the wayward glances of the evil eye. Rake-like finger motifs, linear glyphs and abstract figures complete the sparse decorations that adorn this exceptionally modern Moroccan rug created during the mid-20th century.
