On the Design:

This vibrant vintage Moroccan runner represents a striking addition to Rug & Kilim's collection of Berber tribal textiles. The emerald green dominates as the primary field color, providing a rich saturated backdrop against which purple, cream, and steel blue elements create dramatic contrast. The diamond lattice design organizes this polychromatic scheme into coherent visual design, preventing chaos through systematic geometric pattern. Each diamond cell functions as independent color composition while contributing to the overall pattern progression. The alternating green and purple diamonds create powerful color dialogue, while cream elements provide necessary visual rest points within the intense chromatic scheme. Strategic blue accents add additional color depth without overwhelming the primary green-purple relationship. The fearless color combinations demonstrate the confidence characteristic of superior tribal weaving, where aesthetic boldness serves both decorative and cultural expression.

Condition:

This vintage Moroccan runner rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin. See less
