The power of repetition. Small rhythmic checks fill the rug giving it a certain preppy sophistication but also a touch of op art. It’s a common motif in Berber rugs, and of course in many cultures, that simple square and here it is knotted in a steady hand to great effect. In cream wool and a black that has faded to heathered brown it is as soft as it is strong. Some true black remains along the borders which are filled with flowers and tinged with henna that once would have been very prominent but is now only a whisper.
