Vintage Moroccan Beni Ourain Rug, Cozy Boho Nomad Meets Midcentury Modern Style

About the Item

21363 Vintage Moroccan Beni Ourain Rug 06'08 x 09'10. Originating from the Beni Ourain tribe, a notable faction within the vast Berber community of Morocco, these Moroccan rugs are skillfully crafted using untreated sheep's wool, emphasizing their distinct and modest design philosophy. Adorned with geometric patterns such as uncomplicated diamond or lozenge shapes, these rugs grace a tranquil backdrop, often in hues of beige or cream. The intricate designs come to life through the meticulous weaving of natural sheep's wool, infusing these exceptional pieces with richness and character. This vintage Berber Beni Ourain Moroccan rug seamlessly embodies the essence of Midcentury Modern design aesthetics with its simplicity, plush pile, and tribal allure. Hand-knotted from wool, it presents a captivating vision of woven beauty, featuring a diamond lattice motif composed of lines that elegantly cascade from top to bottom. This intricate pattern creates a striking lozenge trellis with a remarkable sense of dimensionality, adding depth to its visual impact. Rich in historical significance and adorned with Ancient Berber symbolism, this vintage Beni Ourain rug tells a story of tradition and cultural heritage. Traditional symbols of protection and femininity intricately woven into its design reflect the values and beliefs of the Berber community. The solid bands flanking the vertical sides symbolize the male presence, a characteristic feature in Moroccan rugs where male motifs often enclose and frame the female motifs. This arrangement not only represents fertility but also conveys notions of protection and the sanctity of family life. Incorporating this vintage Moroccan rug into a Midcentury Modern interior design scheme adds a layer of timeless elegance and cultural richness. Its harmonious blend of tribal motifs and geometric patterns evokes a sense of warmth and authenticity, creating a space that is both inviting and visually captivating. As a symbol of tradition and craftsmanship, this rug serves as a focal point that embodies the enduring appeal of Midcentury Modern design principles while celebrating the cultural heritage of the Berber people. Rendered in variegated shades of beige, charcoal, orange, coffee, and black with other accent colors. Abrash. Hand-knotted wool. Made in Morocco. Measures: 06'08 x 09'10. Berber Tribes of Morocco. Beni Ourain. Date: 1970s. Late 20th Century.
