Beautiful Vintage Geometric Purple Moroccan Berber Rug, Country Of Origin: Morocco, Circa Date: Mid 20th Century – Although it may surprise the average person, Moroccan Berber rugs have a unique and storied history that provides a cultural richness along with an appealing visual aesthetic. The country of Morocco has always produced distinct and beautiful rugs. Because of how chilly Morocco’s climate can become, the original indigenous habitants began making these stunning carpets to keep them warm.

Carpet weaving is a Moroccan tradition that continued for many years into the modern era as the rug industry evolved and became a staple of Morocco. Now, Morocco is well-known for its impressive and exquisite rugs. The Moroccan rug’s journey throughout the ages has led to many stunning evolutions of its pattern and color palette. These adaptations pay respect to the classic characteristics of the original Moroccan rugs while adding new changes that keep the traditional design alive.

This particular vintage Moroccan Berber purple rug features all the finest qualities that the most famous Moroccan rugs possess. It has a soothing texture that is soft to the touch and brings warmth to the room that very few other interior decorations can. While this purple Berber rug mimics classic Moroccan styles, the vibrant colors make it stand out and gives it a special character.

With a bright solid purple background, the rug also combines a variety of other complementary colors to create mesmerizing patterns. Shades of light blue, a wispy light pink, white, and even small hints of dark brown come together in the shape of small squares to make up the larger diamond patterns. These diamond patterns are an intrinsic and iconic stylistic aspect of most vintage Berber rugs and creating diamonds with smaller squares adds to the distinct look.

Because of its vibrant and colorful aesthetic, this carpet works beautifully to add personality and energy to rooms with stagnant, lifeless decor. When surrounded by complementary tones, it brightens up a dreary room with its intricate design and radiant color scheme. It works especially well in entertainment rooms and bedrooms. Even with its more unconventional hue, this purple Moroccan Berber rug brings a sense of culture and hints at an age-old civilization in a way that no other carpet can.
