Moroccan Rug BB8207 7'0" × 7'10" $6,000

This vintage Moroccan wool rug dating back to circa 1950 features an open field of solid chocolate brown color. The stark minimalism of the vintage carpet makes it an intriguing find for modernist collectors. Moroccan rugs have typically been woven by tribal peoples for their utility rather than for decoration.

From versatile flat-weaves 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.
