Story

The Boujad (sometimes written ‘Boujaad’) area of Morocco is a wide area of the Central Plains. In addition to wool, stripes from cut clothing and synthetic fibers are used to make Boujaad rug. This habit of reusing materials dates back to the 1930s, when sheep herds were considerably reduced in favor of agriculture. Wool that was already dry was becoming rare. Although different materials cannot be combined equally, their use has opened new avenues of expression for Berber women

The audacious choices of the palette of colors, the use of very diverse materials and the appearance of shapes, make these Moroccan Rug, kind of "table mats", very expressive pieces witnessing the Berber and primitive art of Eastern Morocco and especially the Boujad region.

Designs featuring in traditional Boujad Rugs are geometric shapes and lozenges surrounded by decorative borders, checked patterns and large blocks of color, a true spontaneous work of art, Boujad rug is endowed with imperfections giving an extraordinary artistic effect.
