Large Tribal Style Modern Moroccan Wool Area Rug in White and Grey N12129 12'8" × 20'2" $30,000

Although presently made, this new Moroccan style rug embodies the greatest features of centuries-old oriental weaving craft. It is modeled on Beni Ourains – iconic shaggy rugs originally woven by nomadic tribes from the area of Rif mountains near Taza.

The modern rug is an interpretation of the classic Beni Ourain style. Its off-white pile is crossed by pile-less lines with delicate black striations which form a grid of diamonds. In tribal design, a diamond motif symbolizes protection against the Evil Eye. The composition is finished with a simple border and a tassels at the shorter edges of the rug.

This modern Moroccan rug was made in accordance with traditional weaving techniques. Its cushy pile was carefully hand-knotted of high-quality wool by a skilled artisan. Thanks to such a high standard of workmanship, its body is durable, resilient and unique. Under the condition of proper maintenance, the rug will serve its owners for generations without any signs of wear, bringing in warmth and a pinch of Oriental magic.
