6 x 10 Vintage Boujad Moroccan Rug 21488

21488 Vintage Moroccan Rug, 06'03 x 10'00.

Modern Boho Meets Desert Chic in this hand knotted wool vintage Moroccan rug. The tribal design elements and desert-inspired colors woven into this piece work together evoking a zen-like atmosphere. The beguiling composition hosts a variety of ambiguous protection motifs and prolific tribal symbols that carry great meaning in ancient Berber culture. Ram's Horn and Bereket motifs are fertility symbols. Burdock, cross motifs and amulets are used as protection to ward off evil. Stars represent happiness while octagons are considered a symbol of rebirth. Aside from the rich cultural beliefs attached to each image, the enigmatic objects enhance the visual appeal and create a cohesive design aesthetic. By infusing spaces with authentic Berber symbolism and incorporating layers of texture, vintage Moroccan rugs such as this one continue to revolutionize interior design.
