- the rug could even be turned around to its kilim side, so you actually have two rugs for the price of one

direct import
During my purchasing trips to Morocco, I always look for beautiful unique pieces that can fit nicely into concept.
I bid along with the local merchants on the criée berbère of the carpet souks in the heart of Marrakech, which means that most of the intermediate channels are skipped!
maintenance advice
The boucherouite rug cannot be machine washed.
Cleaning is only possible with vacuuming / whipping and using traditional methods with water and brown soap. Let it dry patiently in the sunshine.
handmade
Due to its handwoven and unique nature - irregularities in shape and colour can be expected, and are what adds to the beauty, character and value of the rug.
