Boujad Rug — KHADIJA | 320 × 192 cm
One of a kind means exactly that: there is only one KHADIJA.
Her freeform composition, colour placement and hand-knotted details are unique to this piece. Small irregularities in shape, weave and pile are part of her handmade character, not flaws.
Meet KHADIJA — big, beautiful and wonderfully free.
I found this one through Saïd, our trusted Boujad specialist in Morocco, and it was those wonderfully irregular lines that first caught my eye.
Against a warm creamy wool base, black and turquoise lines wander their way across the rug, interrupted by faded blocks and flashes of dusty pink, coral, mint, brown and deep raspberry. Nothing follows a perfect grid. The pattern shifts, bends and changes direction as you move across the piece.
And then there’s the texture. KHADIJA has a wonderfully tactile, slightly fluffy wool pile that makes all those colours and irregular lines feel even softer in real life.
At 320 × 192 cm, she’s one of our larger Boujad finds — generous enough to anchor a full living room, sit beautifully under a dining table or bring colour and warmth to a large bedroom.
There’s plenty happening here, but the creamy base keeps it surprisingly easy to live with.
Big rug. Lots of character. Zero interest in being perfect.

ORIGIN & SOURCING
Personally sourced by Joëlle for SOUK in the CITY through Saïd, our trusted Boujad specialist in Morocco.
KHADIJA was selected one by one for her wonderfully free composition, softened colour palette and beautifully tactile character.
CARE
Regularly shake out or gently vacuum using low suction and without a rotating brush.
Rotate occasionally for even wear and air outside from time to time to keep the wool fresh.
For deeper cleaning, professional rug cleaning is recommended. Avoid machine washing or soaking.
