Contemporary Moroccan Abstract Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Runner “Fissure” N11182 2'0" × 13'10" $5,000

Angular brown fissures break across the warm tan field of this hand-knotted wool runner, giving the borderless composition a quiet, tribal-abstract energy. The elongated format lets the zigzag bands read like a measured rhythm rather than a strict repeat, so the pattern feels relaxed and contemporary. The open field and graphic accents echo contemporary Moroccan design, but the restrained palette keeps it sophisticated.

Soft ivory-beige pile forms a sandy ground for the warm brown motif, while a few vertical bars interrupt the linework and add a hand-drawn, graphic note. The plush surface gives the design subtle relief and a tactile, low-sheen finish, allowing the motifs to shift gently as light moves across the runner. Its low-density, intentionally irregular pattern keeps the look airy and free of visual clutter, making it especially useful in modern interiors that need texture and structure.

The name Fissure is apt: the jagged lines suggest natural cracks opening through earth, translating that elemental idea into a refined Moroccan-inspired rug. In hallways, galleries, and other transitional spaces, this wool runner brings warmth, movement, and artisan character without overpowering the room.

Part of the curated collection at Doris Leslie Blau, this rug reflects the gallery's dedication to pairing traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design vision. DLB offers an expansive selection of modern rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making exceptional carpet art accessible to designers and collectors alike.
