Truly luxurious, this vintage Moroccan rug epitomizes the elegance of tribal designs that display strong patterns, textures and bold compositional techniques.

Vintage Moroccan Rug, Origin: Morocco, Circa: Mid-Century – This marvelous mid-century vintage rug from Morocco is aglow with luxury. The sumptuous ground is built from deep, fleecy shearling pile that displays tousled color variations ranging from warm beiges to creamy ivories and clear whites. This luscious backdrop is speckled with spacey walnut-tone color blocks that mimic the regal appearance of spotted ermine furs. These sparse decorations and adjoining stripes have a minimalist style and powerful visual effect that is modern, graphic and completely versatile. As many prominent mid-century designers noted, the strong features in Moroccan rugs work together to create an original design effect that uses minimalism to create a true luxury piece with rich textures and understated decorations that are ideal for real homes and capable of flattering almost any living space or interior environment.
