Geometric Morrocan Oriental Rug, old rose with border

Place of origin

The pattern of this oriental rug is inspired by classical Persian rug patterns. This rug has been knotted in Morocco.
br /> In Europe, Morocco is known particularly for the production of durable Berber rugs. However, the production of classic oriental rug patterns also has a long tradition in Morocco.

Patterns

The embellished edging (border) forms a excellent contrast to the center and creates a transition at the edge of the rug.

The abstract, geometric composition creates the simple elegance of this Morrocan Oriental Rug. The pattern flatters the design of the room and does not take the attention away from its furniture, decoration and architectural elements. It creates a pleasant atmosphere without dominating the style of the room.

The repeating elements in the center field of this Morrocan Oriental Rug rug have no specific center (so-called repeating pattern). The repeating pattern has a calming but not boring effect. Rugs with repeating patterns are also called patterned.

The background of this Morrocan Oriental Rug is old rose. The border features dark blue, blue gray and dark blue.

Condition

You are not the first to appreciate this Morrocan Oriental Rug. It has had owners before you who have cherished and used it. It was hand knotted about 1970. We have cleaned it thoroughly and restored it lovingly. Therefore it is in very good condition despite its age.

Material

The pile of this Morrocan Oriental Rug has been hand-knotted from high-quality virgin wool. Virgin wool is obtained through the gentle shearing of sheep. Virgin wool is a sustainable, natural raw material with a number of impressive properties; due to the wool's natural fat content, the surface repels water droplets and is thus naturally impervious to dirt. Wool also offers excellent thermal insulation, has a regulating effect on living climate and muffles sound. The weft and warp threads of this Morrocan Oriental Rug are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and stretchable and, therefore, ideal for a durable backing fabric.
