The largely eccentric crisscrossing of detail lines that plays out against the ivory field of this Moroccan carpet infuses it with energy and character.
Large Contemporary Moroccan Rug, Origin: Morocco, Circa: Early 21st Century – Here is a captivating contemporary carpet that beautifully communicates the aesthetic tradition from which it was born: a contemporary Moroccan carpet, woven in the Beni Ourain style, an erstwhile favorite of collectors and admirers of artisanal rugs and carpets. A style that is characterized by the relationship between simple ivory fields and eccentric line work, the Beni Ourain rug style of rug weaving, while completely, authentically tribal, is beautifully suited to contemporary interior spaces. The abstract and minimalist nature of these compositions lends them a great deal of versatility; these carpets are hugely open for interpretation, and do a uniquely adept job at bringing out the complementary pieces in a space. The largely eccentric crisscrossing of detail lines that plays out against the ivory field of this Moroccan carpet infuses it with energy and character. Its large format complements its minimalist composition; the large negative spaces created by the crisscrossing lines open up sizable portions of the rug to examination and interpretation.
