Modern Abstract Moroccan Ivory Hand-Knotted Wool Rug “Umbra” N12457 5'3" × 9'2" $5,000

Umbra brings a bold graphic rhythm to Moroccan rug design, pairing an ivory ground with a tall, charcoal central form that reads like a shadow cast across the field. Around it, broad bands of brick red, hot pink, coral, burnt orange, brown, and softened neutrals create a lively abstract composition with strong geometric tension.

Hand-knotted in wool, the surface has a plush, slightly irregular hand that gives the colors depth and movement. The pile feels dense and tactile, with subtle striations and shifting yarn tones that keep the composition from appearing flat, allowing the warm palette to glow against the light background. The result is a contemporary tribal-abstract rug with depth and presence.

Named for the dramatic play of light and shadow it evokes, Umbra suits contemporary, modern, and eclectic interiors where a Moroccan abstract rug can act as both anchor and artwork. Its generous negative space and central motif make it especially effective in rooms that need visual clarity with textural warmth.

Exclusively curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this rug exemplifies the balance of innovation, artistry, and enduring quality that defines the gallery's approach to contemporary carpet design. The expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection includes pieces ranging from understated modern works to one-of-a-kind statement rugs.

A bespoke interpretation of this design is available upon request.
