Vintage Tuareg Mat Moroccan Rug with Brown Geometric Pattern, from Rug & Kilim

About the Item

Hand-woven in reed and leather circa 1940-1950, this 10x16 vintage Tuareg Moroccan area rug is from the nomadic tribe of the same name. A rare large-size selection, its design enjoys warm beige undertones and rich brown geometric patterns in large-scale medallion style. On the Design: Connoisseurs will admire Tuareg mats as distinct works with their own rich history and unique, masterful craftsmanship. This design is also one of few in its kind to favor an open field and minimalist approach to the primitivist Berber geometric patterns. The large size further connotes a particularly intricate work—likely made by two or more weavers with meticulous detail. It’s as much a collectible piece of folk art and nomadic culture as a comfortable, durable floor covering today. Condition: This mid-century Tuareg rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
