About the Item
Vintage tribal Moroccan natural wool rug
Size: 4'10" x 5'8" (147 x 172 cm)
This absolutely enchanting vintage rug from the middle of the 20th century is permeated with the magic of authentic oriental tribal art. It falls into the category of Beni Ourain antique carpets which have been woven by nomadic tribes inhabiting the mighty Rif Mountains near Taza for centuries. Moroccan bath rugs are characterized by simple, almost primitive designs, a shaggy pile and only two colors in the palette, brown for the pattern and off white or beige for the background.
Here, we are presented with a wonderful compound of diamond-like shapes and ancient kilim motifs, such as earrings expressing a wish to marry, or a tree of life reflecting human hopes for life after death, all executed in a chestnut brown hue against the off-white setting. Beni Ourain rugs have captured the attention of the Mid-Century Modernists and until now they remain among one of the most sought-after vintage Oriental rugs among designers and tastemakers.
One of the factors that makes them so desirable, besides their simplistic yet strangely captivating design, is the soft, long pile which turns any contact with the rug into a heavenly pleasure for the senses. This vintage Moroccan rug, masterfully hand knotted of the finest wool in accordance with old and refined weaving techniques, will certainly not be a disappointment in any department. Its minimalistic elegance and ethnic charm has a chance to enrich any type of interior décor, from Classic to contemporary.

- Vintage Moroccan Tribal Orange Wool Floor RugLocated in Detroit, MIThis beautiful vintage handwoven Moroccan Berber rug is circa mid-20th century. It features a symmetrical banded geometric design infused with tribal symbolism in gorgeous shades of orange, red, pink, green, gray, brown and cream with gray fringe to both ends and tufts of decorative side fringe. The timeless design of this unique rug will complement any style of contemporary decor, from mid century modern and southwest to boho and global. Moroccan Berber rugs are handwoven by women artisans from the Berber tribes of the Atlas mountains of Morocco. Berber tribal rugs are one-of-a-kind pieces, woven from naturally dyed and undyed sheep’s wool. Lacking a written language, ancient Berber weavers would incorporate ancestral myths into their textiles using abstract images and symbols. This magic symbolism and a minimalist design give these Berber carpets their unique and timeless appeal.
