Vintage Moroccan Carpet, Origin: Morocco, Circa: Mid-20th Century – Here is an intriguing and eye-catching vintage carpet – a mid-century Moroccan rug, by the Beni Ourain tribes, characterized by a beautiful ivory field and intriguing, eccentric detail work, rendered in thick black lines. Generally speaking, mid-century Moroccan pieces such as this piece feature ivory fields and delicate detail work, often rendered in shades of brown. Often, these lines are faint and only suggest structure. In this mid-century Moroccan rug, the heavy black detail lines insist upon structure, contrasting impressively with the ivory field. The jarring, irregular pattern traced by these dark likes is intriguingly disruptive, giving the vintage Moroccan Beni Ourain runner rug a sort of abstract expressionist quality. A fascinating vintage rug, characterized by a unique design, this Moroccan carpet is a memorable composition.
