Somewhere between a rug and an abstract painting.

Meet PRISMA, a wonderfully shaggy vintage Moroccan Boucherouite rug with a rather fearless approach to colour.

A playful patchwork of irregular shapes in bright red, cobalt blue, emerald green, violet, hot pink, orange and creamy white. Some blocks are neatly defined, others seem to run into each other. Nothing is perfectly straight or symmetrical, and that's exactly what makes it so good.

A little about Boucherouite rugs

Traditionally woven in Morocco using recycled textiles, Boucherouite rugs are all about making something beautiful out of what is available.

Different fabrics, colours and textures are brought together by hand, often resulting in wonderfully spontaneous designs. Each one is different, and the most interesting pieces tend to be the ones that don't follow too many rules.

PRISMA is a particularly expressive example, with its thick, shaggy texture and almost painterly composition.

On the floor. Or on the wall.

While PRISMA makes a beautiful little statement rug, we might love it even more as a tapis tableau.

Imagine it hanging on a wall in an eclectic living room, a creative studio or surrounded by books, art and objects collected over the years.

A colourful piece of textile art, with all those wonderful textures you simply don't get from a painting.

GOOD TO KNOW

PRISMA is a genuine vintage handmade Moroccan rug, not a newly manufactured reproduction. Its irregular shape, uneven pile, visible fibres and little imperfections are all part of its character.

You will receive the exact rug shown in the photographs.

Professional rug cleaning recommended. Gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush.
