20130 Vintage Indigo
Beni M'Guild Rug, Blue Berber Moroccan Rug with Bauhaus Style 05’10 x 11’00.
This hand-knotted wool vintage Blue Indigo Beni M'Guild Moroccan rug is an
exceptional representation of Berber culture and symbolism. It features a
single column of two diamonds and V-shapes at either end unfolding across the
middle of an abrashed royal blue backdrop. The zigzag ladder-comb lines come
together to form two lozenges with open ends. The highly effective use of
negative space ensures the bold tribal designs of the piece take centre stage.
Running along the vertical side of the Moroccan rug is a protection border
composed of chain-linked squares dotted with eye motifs for protection. Though
deceptively simple, this Classic design is steeped in Moroccan tradition. The
tribal symbols of diamonds and V-shapes symbolize womanhood and fertility, come
together into a network that is both meaningful and elegant. In Moroccan rugs,
male motifs often appear on the outer portions of the composition, framing and
enclosing the female motifs. This presentation can be seen as symbolizing
fertility, as well as protection and the sanctuary of the family. Well-suited for a wide range of interior
styles: Abstract, Nomadic, Boho Chic, Abstract Expressionism, Cubism, Modern,
Mid-Century Modern, Contemporary, Post-Modern, Memphis Group, Industrial,
Rustic, Lodge, Contemporary Scandinavian, Ethnic, Primitive, African, Tribal
and Bohemian. Perfect for adding a pop of color to a living room, family room,
game room, play room, bedroom, study, studio, office, sitting room, children's,
nursery, man cave, theater room, hallway, entry, foyer and entryway. Rendered
in variegated shades of blue, royal blue, cobalt blue, ruby red, red, brick
red, rust, pistachio, avocado, green, and beige with accents of tan and taupe.
