MAJNOUN Vintage Boucherouite Runner XL | 500 × 100 cm
MAJNOUN is a one-of-a-kind vintage rug with a naturally irregular shape. Its edges are not perfectly straight and its width may vary slightly along the length. Variations in weaving, texture and signs of age are part of its authentic handmade character.
An extraordinary vintage Moroccan rug. Almost five metres of colour, craftsmanship and character.
Some rugs simply stand out. Even at the criée berbère in Marrakech, surrounded by hundreds of colourful vintage textiles.
MAJNOUN was one of those finds.
With its deep black background, a remarkable sequence of colourful diamond motifs and countless smaller geometric details, this vintage Boucherouite is a real eye-catcher.
Pink, turquoise, green, violet, orange and touches of ivory come together in an incredibly rich composition. And then there's its unusual length, making it a striking piece for a spacious hallway, a large interior or a setting where the rug itself can take centre stage.
FROM THE CRIÉE IN MARRAKECH
MAJNOUN was personally sourced at the criée berbère, the traditional carpet market in Marrakech, where traders gather to buy and sell vintage Moroccan rugs and textiles.
After being selected, it was thoroughly washed by local specialists in Marrakech, then photographed in the Moroccan sunshine before being carefully packed for its journey to Belgium.
A beautiful vintage piece, freshly cleaned and ready for its next home.
AN IMPERFECT WORK OF ART
What makes MAJNOUN even more special is its wonderfully irregular shape.
The edges gently curve, the width varies and the colourful diamond motifs follow their own rhythm. Nothing is perfectly straight or symmetrical. And we wouldn't want it any other way.
The deep black background gives the entire composition a strong graphic character, almost like an exceptionally long piece of textile art.
MAJNOUN is one of those rugs that deserves to be seen in its entirety, with all its colours, textures and handmade imperfections.
