Beautiful Vintage Moroccan Rug, Country Of Origin: Morocco, Circa Date: Mid 20th Century – This gorgeous Moroccan rug has the colors of a beautiful desert sunset.

It is a beautiful and inspiring piece for the collector or modern interior designer.

The gently shifting colors transition from reds to browns and ivory. It then begins to add touches of purples and mauves. It has a natural, organic feel in the design and colors. It is woven with high and low areas that give it a unique texture. It is the perfect piece for a casual Boho chic setting, or for a modern, minimalist space.

The earthy feel of the rug makes it perfect for a Scandinavian modern interior. Its nature-inspired design also makes it perfect for an all-season room. The design and colors of the rug connect the interior space with the exterior space to create a design that feels soothing and balanced.

Rug weaving was performed by the women of the Berber tribes who live in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. They are a nomadic people and only used the wool grown by the tribe and the plant materials that they encountered along the way to create these beautiful colors.

The designs created by the Moroccan women are a unique form of self-expression. Each one is a unique piece of artwork that touches the culture and lives of these people who have inhabited the region for many centuries. Many times, the women wove designs that were inspired by the natural world around them. One can only imagine the beautiful vista that inspired this piece.
