Rug - 160 cm - 85 cm - Moroccan knotted rugs

Set of two almost-new hand-knotted Moroccan rugs – circa 1986 – with original inspection labels A matching pair of vintage Moroccan rugs with a warm red central field, a blue-cream star medallion and richly decorated, multicolored borders. Both rugs are finished with light tassels. According to family tradition, the rugs were specially commissioned around 1986 in the Fez–Meknes region. They were made at the time as part of a gift to the groom’s bride. The original blue labels are present, with the markings ‘Maroc’, ‘Artisanat’, ‘Points noués’ and ‘Supérieure’. These refer to Moroccan artisanal knotwork and the indicated quality class. The rugs have been carefully preserved and, in my assessment, are in near-new condition, with bright colors and a well-maintained pile. Offered as a set of two. Dimensions: presumably around 160 × 85 cm per rug, according to the faded handwritten labels; to be confirmed by re-measuring.
