Lively checkered vintage Moroccan Boucherouite rug curated by Breuckelen Berber.

About the Item

This rather simple yet lively Boucherouite features an overall checkerboard motif organized in horizontal bands. Woven in a palette of magenta, sky blue, dusty pink, red-orange, peach, and charcoal. Constructed in a mixture of wool and cotton. A common utilitarian rug made in all regions of Morocco woven of recycled cloth, most often cotton clothing and other various fibers. Some of the patterns are more extreme while others take on a more traditional look. Many of the more elaborate colorful examples play a specific role in the Berber home. The Berbers are innately superstitious, and feel wild patterns and vibrant colors can help ward off negative energy and evil spirits. Many Boucherouites can be found in the entryways of homes throughout the region. It is believed that the bright colors and striking patterns confuse the evil eye and prevent the home from taking in unwanted guests. All of our inventory is hand selected in Morocco. We curate the best possible selection of vintage Berber carpets available. Our entire collection of carpets and textiles is located in Brooklyn, New York. All of our pieces are professionally cleaned and restored prior to coming to market. We ship anywhere in the world within two weeks.
