(DK-109-86)

Morocco, Middle Atlas Mountains: Late 20th Century
Knotted pile: wool
A very nice Moroccan Berber rug from the Middle Atlas Mountains, in the tradition of the Beni Ouarain tribes, woven entirely with natural (undyed) wool in ivory and shades of brown. The design is a nice improvisation on the classic diamond grid. Relatively young, but an authentic Berber weaving.
