Organic Modern Vintage Rabat Earth-Tone Moroccan Carpet
About the Item
77252 Vintage Rabat Moroccan Area Rug, 11'09 x 14'08. This hand knotted wool vintage Rabat Moroccan rug features an all-over geometric lozenge pattern composed of diagonal rows of alternating diamonds filled with symbolic motifs. Displaying a charming and almost quilt-like appearance, this vintage Rabat Moroccan rug showcases these traditions with a dazzling array of patterns and motifs that would be a focal point of any room it inhabits. Unlike most other Moroccan rugs, Rabat city rugs exhibit Anatolian designs and influence, though it is unclear how these designs came to Morocco many centuries ago. According to Indianapolis Museum of Arts’ “The Fabric of Moroccan Life,” the women weavers of Rabat tell a legend that one day “a stork dropped into the courtyard of a house a piece of rug…whose colors and design were hitherto unknown in the land… the women weavers of the house saw it as a gift from heaven, a talisman, and a good omen, and so were inspired by it.” The people of Rabat consider wool to be as precious as gold and a variety of rituals surround the making of their rugs. They are known to be able to create bright and saturated poly-chromatic color schemes with a narrow palette.
Rendered in warm hues and variegated shades of beige, tan, ecru, taupe, camel, coffee, brown and rustic orange.
Tag on the back reads: Morocco, Rabat.

Oversized Vintage Rabat Moroccan Rug, Hotel Lobby Size Carpet
By Rabat Village Women
Located in Dallas, TX
77201 Oversized Vintage Moroccan Rug, 13'10 x 18'07.
Representing an exclusive category of Moroccan carpets and a sign of wealth, this palatial Rabat Moroccan rug is a captivating vision of woven beauty. The detailed tribal design and vibrant colorway woven into this piece work together to. Clevery composed and colorfully curated, this oversized vintage Moroccan rug features six superimposed stepped diamond-shaped medallions in bright lime, sunflower yellow and tomato red spread across a creamy-biege field. A variety of ambiguous tribal symbols decorate the field between the medallions, including combs and burdocks. Combs and darts grace the corner spandrels, while stepped hexagons with diamond centers line the edges. The attractive border echoes the graphic designs of the central area and features fetter motifs in alternating colors separated by thin bars with diamond end-caps. Fetters traditionally symbolize family union, while combs, diamonds, and burdocks are seen to protect against evil. Not exactly subtle but enough to make a statement, this colorful Moroccan rug is charming and fun.
