Vintage Moroccan Rug BB8166 6'10" × 12'4" $12,000

This circa-1952 vintage Moroccan handmade rug features a traditional design of diamond shapes, rectangles, triangles and flower-heads enclosed within a solid, beige border. The pattern is kept in warm shades of beige, light brown against a natural wool field. It is made out of wool, to which Moroccan rugs owe their timelessness and durability.

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.
