Vintage Moroccan Rug, circa Mid 20th Century — This vintage Moroccan area rug is defined by a sense of free spirited design and unpretentious beauty. Its distinctly ethnic aesthetic is represented by tints of brown patterning on a beige background, fading in and out of saturation. The design is an unstructured tribal-influenced theme, with diamond shapes that house curious figures and glyph. The field of this rug stretches out into asymmetrical borders, which lends it an air of casual charm. Its elegance lies in its rugged movement, from simple geometric shapes on one half of the landscape, to a complicated arrangement of figures on the other. It is a sublimely detailed depiction of understated elegance.
