5'6" x 8'1" (168cm x 246cm) Morocco, Middle Atlas Mountains: Mid-20th Century, or earlier Knotted pile: wool
$6,850
A classic rug from the central Middle Atlas, probably by the Ait Youssi or the Beni Mguild. These neighboring tribes are both known with their white ground, medium-sized rugs, but the fineness of the weave, texture and the small-scale diamond lattice design of this example leans more towards the Ait Youssi tradition.
