15546 Rare Oversized Vintage North African Moroccan Berber Rug 15 x 10 ft
This vintage Berber carpet from the tribe of Beni Mrirt is truly unique. It was knotted with bifurcated design - it has two different designs. This abstract design makes the rug very complex. It has a high pile and is thick and dense - the perfect insulation from the floor on cold nights. This is often the case at high altitudes in the Atlas Mountains in Morocco. The main color is a madder red background.
