SOUK in the CITY
Boujad Rug — MOSAÏK | 250 × 170 cm
One of a kind means exactly that: there is only one MOSAÏK.
Its irregular composition, colour placement and hand-knotted details are unique to this piece.
Meet MOSAÏK — a Boujad with a bit of an Ourika soul.
I found this one at Saïd’s in September 2024, one of the rug specialists I regularly source from in Morocco. And it’s exactly the kind of rug I love finding: one that doesn’t fit too neatly into a box.
MOSAÏK combines the rich wool, knots and beautiful mauve tones we associate with Boujad rugs with a much lighter, almost Ourika-like composition. Against its warm off-white wool base, dozens of colourful geometric motifs appear almost spontaneously — in pink, turquoise, orange, purple, black and soft blue.
The result is wonderfully graphic and playful, yet surprisingly easy to live with. At 250 × 170 cm, it brings plenty of colour and character without visually taking over the room.
