Vintage Berber Moroccan Rug, 05'01" x 05'11" From Esmaili Rugs Collection. This stunning Berber rug from Morocco features an allover pattern depicting lozenge and triangle shapes that are decorated with multicolored outlines to create this captivating composition. The gentle waves of abrash highlight the variegated plum colored field while providing depth and texture. Each triangle and diamond is filled with different colors. The hints of dyes that make their way into the rug's motifs and fringes have their own tale to tell. In Berber culture, the color red symbolizes strength and protection, blue symbolizes wisdom, yellow represents eternity and green stands for peace. While the patterns may seem whimsical and random – they are very significant to the rug weaver's life. The Berber women incorporate design elements from their personal experience into the rugs designs. The symbols are usually references to events and aspects of their daily life such as beliefs, birth, fertility, nature, femininity, life and spirituality.
