{"product_id":"cobalt-blue-vintage-moroccan-rug-4x7","title":"Cobalt (4'2\" x 7'0\") – Authentic Vintage Moroccan Rug","description":"\u003cp\u003eA deep cobalt-blue ground, and drawn across it in red, a loose lattice — a few horizontal and vertical lines dividing the field into large, uneven compartments, wandering slightly off-true the way a hand-drawn line does. A scatter of small red marks fills the spaces, and near one end a few flashes of orange break through. That is the whole design, and it is enough. This is a rug that says one bold thing and says it well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe blue is what makes it rare. Vintage Moroccan weaving lives in reds, creams and natural browns; a saturated cobalt ground at this scale is genuinely uncommon, and against it the red lattice reads almost like a modernist painting — Rothko by way of the Atlas Mountains. It looks like something made this decade. It was not.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pile is deep and chunky, soft and full underfoot, and every wandering line and scattered mark belongs to one weaver working freehand, without a pattern to follow. That is where the character comes from, and it is why no second rug like it exists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWe buy rugs like this because we would rather sell one honest, irregular, human-made piece than a hundred flawless machine copies. It was hand-knotted in Morocco decades ago, it has already lived a life, and there is not another one anywhere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRug Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e IC-2490\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4'2\" x 7'0\" (1.27m x 2.13m)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConstruction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-knotted on a traditional loom in Morocco — no machine work at any stage\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vintage Moroccan shag rug — bold red lattice on a cobalt-blue ground\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColours:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cobalt blue with red, and small orange and black accents\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep, chunky shag\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFringe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original mixed fringe at both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthenticity:\u003c\/strong\u003e A genuine one-of-a-kind vintage piece.

The blue keeps it cool enough for a room that is not warm-toned — concrete, smoked oak, black metal, white plaster, cool linens — while the red stops it feeling cold.
