Vintage Beni M'Guild Moroccan Rug with Retro Postmodern Style

About the Item

20971, vintage Beni M'Guild Moroccan rug with Retro Postmodern style. This hand knotted wool vintage Beni M'Guild Moroccan rug features a series of expanded diamonds composed from the ancient Berber Tribe ladder-comb motif. The stark contrast of vibrant green and charcoal gray lines create a spirited pattern. It is enclosed with a crenellated border. Though deceptively simple, this classic design is steeped in tradition and significance. The crenellated borders represent snakes, which are seen to symbolize male fertility. Some also ascribe the significance of the snake motif to the “Great Goddess,” who tamed the snake like a spirit animal whirling around her divine staff. In Moroccan rugs, male motifs often appear on the outer portions of the composition, framing and enclosing the female motifs. This presentation can be seen as symbolizing fertility, as well as protection and the sanctuary of the family. With its plush pile, bold expressive design, and vibrant color palette, this vintage Moroccan rug prioritizes comfort without compromising on style. Perfect for adding organic textile sensations to a living room, family room, bedroom, front room, home office, private library, billiards room, game room, playroom, study, studio, sitting room, children's, nursery, man cave, theater room, wide hallway, designer entry, grand foyer and large entryway.
