{"product_id":"voltage-red-green-vintage-moroccan-rug-4x8","title":"Voltage (4'1\" x 8'5\") – Authentic Vintage Moroccan Rug","description":"\u003cp\u003eRed and green, turned all the way up. A pillar-box red field, an emerald-green border scrolling with black latch-hooks around all four sides, and set on the red, two ornate medallions in colours that seem almost lit from within — cobalt blue edged in neon yellow-lime, hot pink, orange, turquoise. The upper medallion is a stepped cartouche with curling arms; the lower one more organic, almost a standing figure. Nothing here is quiet. Nothing was meant to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eVivid saturated colour like this is rare in vintage Moroccan weaving, and this piece pushes it further than almost anything of its age — the neon lime in particular is unusual, and thrilling. It has the energy of pop art and the soul of a hand-knotted Berber rug, which is a combination you do not often find.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIt was made by hand in Morocco, and every choice on it — the clashing colours, the asymmetry between the two medallions, the confidence of that green against that red — belongs to one weaver working without a printed pattern, following her own eye. A machine could never have dared this.\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-2489\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4'1\" x 8'5\" (1.24m x 2.57m)\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 rug — twin ornate medallions on a red ground with an emerald latch-hook border\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColours:\u003c\/strong\u003e Vivid red and emerald green with cobalt blue, neon lime, hot pink, orange and turquoise\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePile:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium-high, plush\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFringe:\u003c\/strong\u003e Original mixed pink and blue fringe at both ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthenticity:\u003c\/strong\u003e A genuine one-of-a-kind vintage piece.
