Vintage Moroccan Beni Ouarain Carpet BO_186
This vintage Moroccan carpet exhibits a clear influence from its neighboring tribes to the south, the Beni M’Guild and Guigou. Chains of female and male symbols are organized into chevron motifs, deviating from the patterns more commonly associated with Beni Ouarain weavings. The neutral palette shifts from soft grey to pewter, mocha, and camel, on a field of lustrous ivory. Some areas of minor pile loss, which do not detract from the overall character of the piece. 100% wool with a time faded patina.
