Vintage Mid-Century Moroccan Rug in All-Over Geometric Pattern on Pale Indigo
Located in Barrington, IL
Enjoy the captivating blend of tradition and modernity with this beautiful Vintage Mid-Century Moroccan rug. Hand-woven with authentic craftsmanship, this rug features an compelling all-over geometric pattern that exudes both timeless appeal and a distinctly mid-century modern aesthetic.
The rug's main field is a truly wonderful shade of pale indigo, a serene and nuanced blue that displays subtle variations throughout. This natural "abrash" effect adds depth and authenticity to the rug's beauty, creating a visually interesting and dynamic surface. The geometric pattern is elegantly rendered in harmonious tones of deep navy and soft ivory, which beautifully complement the pale indigo background.
This room size or area rug masterfully combines the charm of old-world design with the clean lines and artistic sensibilities of mid-century modern design plans. Its versatile aesthetic allows it to seamlessly integrate into a variety of decor styles, from eclectic bohemian to minimalist contemporary, serving as a sophisticated foundation or a striking focal point.
Moroccan rugs are celebrated for their unique patterns, often reflecting the cultural heritage and artistic expression of the Berber tribes. This piece embodies that spirit, bringing a sense of history and artistry to any space.

Vintage Beni Ourain Rugs, Azilal Rugs and Other Moroccan Rugs and North African Rugs for Sale
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.
