It features an intricate double-diamond lattice and subtle orange accents across a plush, warm cream field.

On the Design:

This vintage Moroccan rug is distinguished by its quiet palette and expressive geometric design, showcasing the deeply personal character of mid-century Berber weaving. An expansive ivory and cream field provides a soft foundation for a dense lattice of small diamond motifs, rendered in subtle shades of taupe and brown. The hand-drawn quality of the linework lends the repeating geometry an organic character, while gentle variations in tone add further depth and movement to the design.

In traditional Berber visual culture, this repeating lozenge network symbolizes protection and feminine fertility, establishing a harmonious geometric framework across the canvas. A subtle horizontal divider bisects the field, where the diamond grid transitions into a larger, stacked diamond scale anchored by delicate flecks of warm orange and blush pink. The thick wool pile naturally softens the dark gridlines into an organic, painterly blur underfoot, establishing the rug as a serene, storytelling anchor for modern living rooms, light-filled bedrooms, and curated minimalist spaces. The accompanying book, 35S. L'atelier de Le Corbusier by Didier Teissonière, is part of Volumes by Rug & Kilim. The book (SKU - B162) can be acquired independently through our bookstore.
