Beautiful Mid Century Beni Ourain Vintage Moroccan Rug, Country Of Origin: Morocco, Circa Date: Mid 20th Century — A fusion of traditional aesthetic and timeless Beni Ourain design defines this vintage Moroccan rug. It is a graceful arrangement of dark tapered diamonds flowing symmetrically across a field of ivory, to form larger symmetrical diamonds. Its understated elegance lies in the structure’s clean lines and abundance of negative space. The combination of size and symmetry among the diamonds, are a unique artistic portrayal of this common design theme. Dark borders play naturally into the clean presentation of the landscape, with a stylish lightly frayed look. Despite its age, the architecture of this classic vintage rug exudes modern sophistication and remarkable craftsmanship.
