About the Item

With a prominent abstracted medallion surrounded by a field of nebulous forms, this vintage Moroccan Boujad takes on an intriguing and surreal sensibility. Many of the floating motifs are executed in brown and ivory melange, creating a diffused presence. A colorful palette lends further character to the piece. Woven with a mixture of wool and cotton fibers. Boujad, an urban center with both Arab and Arabized Berber tribes in the Haouz plains region east of Marrakech (between the Middle Atlas and Atlantic Ocean) named after the town of the same name. Carpets from this region have similarities to those from the Middle Atlas, utilizing Berber motifs and similar structures, but tend to take on a more individualistic creative approach. Motifs are often distorted, and vast colors reflect an urban influence. These carpets can vary from an abstract side of weaving art to more precise symmetrical messages. Boujad carpets were not made for bedding but rather for use on the floor. 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.
