Vintage Moroccan Rug, Morocco, Mid 20th Century – Rendered in a stark minimalist style, this understated vintage rug from Morocco showcases a variety of regional traits seen in the marvelous textures, restrained colors and exquisite way the plush pile is accentuated with gradient colors and abrashed accents. The beautifully gradient field fades from flaxen hues to bold shades of mustard yellow with orange undertones. This richly textural background surface is embellished with a simplistic sable brown grid of bold rectilinear bars. The stark tic-tac-toe field created by the simple sable brown bars creates an exceptionally minimalist result that pairs strong rectilinear lines and lateral stripes against an unadorned field that features subtle variations with no definitive borders. This sleek vintage Moroccan rug epitomizes the regional minimalist style that produces many interpretive results.
