Boujad d'OURIKA Rug II | 165 x 105 cm
One-of-a-kind Boujad d’Ourika rug | 100 % wool | Size: approx. 165 × 105 cm
A joyful burst of Atlas colour on a creamy ivory base, this Boujad d’Ourika piece celebrates the playful spirit of the Ourika Valley. Hand-knotted in thick, velvety wool, it features vibrant diamond talismans, soft zigzags, tiny saffron blossoms and lively strokes of cobalt, mint, fuchsia and charcoal — each detail placed with an instinctive, almost musical rhythm.
The creamy background makes the colours glow, while the contrasting black lines add a graphic touch that anchors the composition. With its plush texture and bright folkloric palette, this rug instantly softens and uplifts any space.
Flip it over and you’ll find a beautifully balanced flat-woven underside — a hidden artwork of colourful warp threads that reveals the artisan’s technical finesse.
Perfect as a bedside rug, a cosy accent in a reading corner, or a vibrant wall hanging, this piece carries the joyful heartbeat of the Ourika region.
