Vintage Moroccan Beni Ourain Rug , Country of Origin: Morocco, Circa date: Mid 20th Century – The first thing that catches your eye about this piece is its unusual design. This rug was created by the Moroccan Berber tribes during the mid-20th century. The designs of these tribal rugs are symbolic and tell a story. It is not unusual to find organic, asymmetrical designs in Moroccan rugs, but this one stands out and is not the typical design that one expects to find.

Each of the symbols on this rug tells a story. The X in the center of the diamonds represents scissors or a metalworker. The trade of metalworking holds a high status among the tribes and is connected to superstition and magic. The fascinating story behind these symbols adds and element of mystery and makes it even more unique.

This rug has a bold, graphic quality that is modern and would be the perfect complement to a modern interior. Black and white is a popular style this year, and modern designers have given it a new twist by adding colors and patterns to the design. They are mixing florals, stripes, and geometric elements to add interest to this classic color combination. This rug would add an exotic flavor to an all black and white room.

The classic black and white pattern of this rug is daring enough to hold its own in a room of intense, saturated colors. Its tribal quality also makes it a Boho chic essential. This rug is bold enough for any modern design, even though it is a vintage piece.

One of the characteristics that make Berber rugs timeless favorites is that they are made from durable wool. The environment in which these nomadic tribes live makes it perfect for growing wool that is both strong and soft. They often have a longer pile, which gives them a plush and luxurious feel. This rug is perfect for adding both bold design and soft texture to the room.
