Vintage Moroccan Ourika Carpet OR04

This incredibly vibrant Ourika Valley carpet has the essence of a watercolor painting, with subtle color gradations throughout the composition. Blocks of color and several large lozenges fill the field, capped at both ends with a male zig zag/snake motif. Knotted in cotton on a multicolor cotton warp.
