Moroccan Rug

Offered by: Doris Leslie Blau Rugs

Description
This vintage area rug originates from Morocco and dates back to 1950s. It is made out of wool, to which Moroccan rugs owe their timelessness and durability. The rug’s field is beige, with brown, taupe and light peach shades reserved for the diamond geometric pattern within thin brown border. 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.
