Hand-knotted in wool and originating from Morocco circa 1950-1960, this 3x6 vintage Moroccan rug is an extremely rare piece like so few of its provenance.
On the Design:
Admirers of the craft will note what an exceptional find this shabby chic piece is for any period, especially considering the typically small, narrow looms of many tribal weavers. A crisp white field underscores colorful geometric patterns and archaic motifs with a bold, graphic sense of drama and gravity in the Berber primitivist sensibility. Admirers of the craft will note what a special find Moroccan rugs with such bright colors are in the modern day, and still it enjoys the sense of chaos, whimsy, and personal nature that speaks to the soul and beauty of these rugs. Each is a one-of-a-kind work of folk art and culture, and this piece’s versatile size further lends itself to vast applications—from narrow spaces to hallways and more.
Condition:
This vintage Moroccan runner rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. less
