Oversized Abstract Moroccan Rug, Bohemian Rhapsody Meets Expressionist Style
Located in Dallas, TX
21121 Oversized Abstract Moroccan Rug 15'03 x 17'00. Abstract Expressionist style meets Bohemian Rhapsody in this hand knotted wool oversized Moroccan rug. The visual complexity and intense earthy colors woven into this piece work together creating a bold, expressive design. Flowing organic lines bands run down the center and across the top forming a t-shape. Short horizontal bands dash across the width interrupting the continuity. Imbued with ethereal hues and rich waves of abrash, the gradated striations give the piece a painterly quality reminiscent of watercolors and gouaches. Reflecting elements of Abstract Expressionism and a bold art form, this authentic Berber carpet draws inspiration from Ian Davenport, Sol LeWitt, and Gerhard Richter. It is truly 'Art You Can Walk On'! Perfect for adding organic textile sensations to living room, family room, bedroom, home office, large library or study, studio, game room, billiards room, playroom, children's area, home theater, large entertaining space, hotel lobby, or a lounge area. Well-suited for a variety of interior styles: Cubism, Orphism, Abstract Expressionism, Fauvism, Surrealism, Futurism, Cubist, Retro, Modernism, Contemporary, Expressionist, Postmodern, Art Moderne, Hygge, Mys, Mysigt, Tribal, Boho Chic, Bohemian, Nomadic, Midcentury Modern, Industrial, Loft, Urban, and Eclectic. Iconic in its styling, this modern Moroccan rug would also complement esoteric ambiences from avant-garde estate homes, contemporary chateaus, and ultramodern coastal villas to luxury ski chalets, exclusive hunting lodges and affluent mountainside manor found in Colorado, Lake Tahoe, Wyoming, or the Adirondacks. Rendered in variegated shades of beige, blue, cerulean, tan, taupe, navy blue, royal blue, maroon, ecru, green, plum, sky blue, gold, light pink, purple, lavender, and Azul with other accent colors.

Antique and Vintage Moroccan Rugs for Sale on 1stDibs: Find Beni Ourain Rugs, Azilal Rugs, Kilims and More

Antique and vintage Moroccan rugs serve as an exceptional piece of decor. Whether it’s to tie your bedroom together or to add a dazzling array of colors and graphically provocative shapes and other elements to your living room wall, there’s increased demand for all types of Moroccan tribal rugs, especially as bohemian, global and eco styles are on the rise and because tapestries and wall hangings are definitely cool again.

Travelers and interior design lovers from all over the world are big fans of the complex geometric patterns and bold color palettes that we typically associate with rustic, natural Moroccan and North African rugs.

In the West, the current infatuation with handwoven vintage Moroccan tribal rugs stretches to the mid-20th century. Then, designers such as Alvar Aalto, Frank Lloyd Wright and Le Corbusier offset austere interiors with vibrant and alluring mid-century modern Moroccan rugs. (Le Corbusier integrated these rugs in his designs for Villa La Roche in Paris, while Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater in Pennsylvania is also home to distinctive Moroccan floor coverings.)

Moroccan rugs date back to the Paleolithic era, when Berber tribes, which comprised many different members of an ethnic group native to North Africa, would weave these textiles with intricate images and symbols. Traditionally, Moroccan tribal weavings were made exclusively by women and solely for personal use. Dense pile rugs served not only as floor coverings but as mattresses, seating and even blankets in the winter months.

The Moroccan rug hasn’t survived this long merely because of its usefulness. These stunning works take at least two to three weeks to weave, and each woman weaves the story of her life into the design. They are filled with symbolism and vary greatly depending on the locale where they were woven. In this way, part of the profound beauty of traditional Moroccan rugs lies in their historical and cultural significance.

One of the most widely loved styles of Moroccan rugs comes from the Beni Ourain tribes, a network of nearly two dozen individual tribes in the mountainous Middle Atlas region.

Vintage Beni Ourain rugs are woven from undyed, natural wool. The textures, imperfections and asymmetrical lines, which can’t be reproduced with mass production methods, as well as the neutral tones and understated geometry have endeared interior designers to these works for ages. In comparison to the spare Beni Ourain rugs, a more heavily decorated, widely colorful option can be found in Azilal Moroccan rugs, which contrast wonderfully with the rich, dark wood tones and clean lines that characterize mid-century modern furniture.

The collection of antique and vintage rugs and carpets on 1stDibs features a wide range of extraordinary Moroccan and North African rugs including Beni Ourain rugs, Azilal rugs, kilims and more.
