Hand-knotted in wool and originating circa 1950-1959, this 7x11 vintage Moroccan berber rug joins Rug & Kilim’s Moroccan collection. It features dual stacked diamond medallions and colorful tasseled selvage borders on a plush royal-blue field.
On the Design:
This vintage Moroccan Berber rug unites vibrant color contrast with expressive High Atlas geometry across a generous scale. The layout unfolds across an electric royal-blue field, centered by two stacked diamond medallions outlined in crisp white, green, and orange. Intricate cross motifs and starbursts inhabit the core of each lozenge, bringing an engaging focal energy to the expansive canvas.
In traditional Berber visual culture, these repeating lozenge structures symbolize spiritual protection and feminine fertility. Multi-colored tufted tassels in emerald green, marigold, charcoal, and orange run along the selvage edges, serving as an artful frame for the vivid field. The plush, high-pile wool softens the graphic linework into a painterly blur underfoot, establishing this vintage rug as an extraordinary statement piece for modern living rooms, artful bedrooms, and curated luxury spaces. The accompanying book, Upstate by Lisa Przystup, is part of Volumes by Rug & Kilim. The book (SKU - B360) can be acquired independently through our bookstore.
Condition:
This vintage Moroccan rug enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
