- Vintage Moroccan Blue Kilim Rug with Geometric Border and Two Diamond LozengesLocated in Morristown, NJAntique early 20th century Moroccan Kilim rug, with two central diamond medallions, made in simple flat-woven or tapestry technique, in which the pattern is produced by horizontal wefts that cover the vertical warps.
