Mid-20th century Moroccan Reversible Deep Blue Hand Knotted Wool Rug BB6877 6'3" × 7'5" $9,000

Unique and chic, this vintage rug perfectly combines modern minimalism with ethnic art. No wonder the mid-20th century Modernists were absolutely obsessed with Moroccan weaving craft. Its face bears an abstract geometric design outlined with dark brown against the deep blue background. Everything is finished with a lovely fringe that adds lightness and charm to the composition. The reversible piece was carefully hand-knotted of the finest wool in accordance with traditional techniques thanks to which it has survived until this day without any signs of blemish. If properly maintained, the Moroccan rug will withstand years of usage bringing effortless elegance and a breath of history into any contemporary décor.

From versatile flatweaves to shaggy hand-knotted area rugs or runners, Moroccan rugs are both decorative and functional. They are valued for their technical qualities, expert use of fibers, great tensile strength, and abrasion resistance. Without a doubt, the original tribal Moroccan rugs from the Doris Leslie Blau collection bring character and a touch of worldliness to an interior.
