Exclusive Boujad Boucherouite Rug 262/174
Authentic, natural and a piece of the Moroccan soul
Beni Ouarain rugs have a spirit and a character. It is a reflection of the daily lives of the women who make it. Most vintage Beni rugs are cream (ivory) in color, although differences in tone are found depending on the color of the sheep. They are considered the most prestigious rugs in Morocco, made from the very best wool.
This unique rug has a beautiful Beni Ouarain wool base. But, as a twist, it was characterized by berber ladies from the Boujad region and an unusual boucherouite design was added. Pieces of cut cotton clothing (recycled) were woven into the wool base in a soft, neutral color palette.
Not just any recycled fabrics were used... The cotton is imported from Italy and very high quality - used by a Marrakchi designer to make trendy kaftans, Leftovers are bought exclusively by our contact, zo make this kind of mixed technique rugs.
