Vintage Moroccan Tuareg Mat With Gold, Green and Red Geometric Patterns

About the Item

This vintage Moroccan rug is an 8×10 Tuareg mat from the nomadic tribe of the same name. Handwoven with reeds and leather circa 1950-1960, its natural materials enjoy warm beige-brown undertones to gold, green and red stripes and geometric patterns. On the Design: Admirers of the craft will appreciate Tuareg mats as distinct tribal works with a rich history and unique, masterful craft. This particular piece enjoys one of the best sizes one can find these in—an area rug well suited to a wider range of interiors today. The range of colors, too, is a departure from many others in the style, and they’ve aged beautifully in kind. It’s a collectible piece of primitivist folk art and nomadic culture, as well as a comfortable, durable floor covering with so many special design applications today. Condition: This mid-century Tuareg further enjoys great condition for its age and origin.
