326. An uplifting old Moroccan Rug
326. Provenance: Tribal, Morrocan
Size: 323 x 142 cm
Age: Circa 1950
Condition: Very good.
Notes: This is a joyful tribal rug, with natural dyes (at least to my eyes). This uses the Turkish or symmetrical knot, and woolen warps. There are three wefts (hence the floppy, loose handle) between each row of knots, and these wefts are in yellow cotton. The plain-weave kilim ends are in prime condition and they have pile motifs woven into them. A wonderful, fun rug.
