About the Item

74733 Vintage Moroccan Beni Ourain Rug, 06'02 x 13'04. Immerse yourself in the artful legacy of Beni Ourain rugs, meticulously hand-woven by skilled women from the Beni Ourain and diverse Berber tribes nestled in the North-Eastern Middle Atlas Mountains of Morocco. Drawing inspiration from the weaving traditions of the nomadic Beni Ourain tribe, these rugs embody a timeless artistry passed down through generations. This vintage Beni Ourain Moroccan rug, crafted with precision, seamlessly blends disparate elements, capturing the essence of Midcentury Modern influence with its sumptuous pile and refined simplicity. The composition unfolds a captivating lozenge lattice adorned with stars, diamonds, and enigmatic tribal symbols, representing the epitome of Beni Ourain craftsmanship. It is framed with a stacked diamond border running along the vertical sides. Against a natural sheep's wool backdrop of off-white and beige, charcoal and black lines elegantly contrast, creating a striking visual harmony. Cherished by interior designers, decorators, and discerning homeowners, these Moroccan rugs are revered for their minimalist color palette, adding warmth and texture to modern and contemporary spaces. In the 1930s, visionaries like Le Corbusier, Alvar Aalto, and Charles and Ray Eames introduced plush Moroccan rugs to interiors, providing a perfect counterbalance to sleek leather and chrome furniture designs. Originating as practical floor and sleeping rugs for protection against the cold, these plush Moroccan carpets have evolved into cherished elements in contemporary homes. The mid to late twentieth century witnessed a revival of appreciation for mid-century modernism, and these rugs, whether gracing floors or adorning walls, serve as story-filled talismans in our daily lives. The unique allure of these tribal carpets lies in their seamless blend of minimalist utility and magical symbolism, offering a timeless appeal that captivates and enriches our living spaces. Rendered in variegated shades of beige, charcoal, and black coffe with other neutral colors. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in Morocco. Berber Tribes of Morocco. Beni Ourain. Measures: 06'02 x 13'04. Date: 1960s. Mid-20th Century.
