6 x 10 Vintage Boujad Moroccan Rug 20916

20916 Vintage Boujad Moroccan Rug, 05'10 x 09'08. 

Celebrate the vibrant spirit of Boujad rugs, originating from the lively city of Boujad in the Khouribga region. These Moroccan rugs are cherished for their eccentric and artistic designs. Nestled in the Mid Atlas Mountains, the Boujad region lends its rich cultural heritage to these unique creations.

Bathed in a harmonious palette of nature-inspired hues, this Moroccan rug unfurls like a canvas painted with masterful brush strokes. Rich striations, running selvage to selvage, capture the essence of the natural landscape, mirroring the color of Tabla, a red clay sourced from the Haouz Plains west of the city. An array of Burdock motifs with latch-hook edges and secondary protection symbols come to life against the strong waves of abrash, creating a captivating visual feast. The backdrop enhances the visual impact, as if the patterns are floating on the surface of the carpet.

This intricate play of colors is not just visual poetry; it transcends mere pigmentation, resonating with cultural symbolism and evoking the mesmerizing imagery of Sahara Desert dunes—an ode to nature in every strand. The earth-tone colors go beyond aesthetics, symbolizing the very earth and dust that form the foundation of Morocco's architecture, adorning the walls of Kasbahs, mosques, medinas, and the tents of nomads traversing the land. 

This vintage Boujad rug is not merely a floor covering; it's a sustainable work of art, weaving tales of a beguiling Moroccan paradise and offering a unique piece of eco-conscious luxury for your space. Welcome to your very own oasis, where Biophilic Design meets Berber cultural heritage, and every step on this rug is a journey through sustainability and timeless beauty.
