BOUJAD RUNNER N° 517BJ


A colorful runner made from industrial yarn, whose overall design features two distinct sections. The pattern begins with a clearly defined concept framed by checkered borders, then suddenly shifts to a freer, looser version of itself. An interplay of warm and cool shades underscores the composition and enhances its unique character.

BOUJAD rugs are made by Arab groups and Arabized Berber groups but they are named after the town of Boujad. The surrounding region of this town lies in the western foothills of the Middle Atlas adjoining the Zaer tribal territory in the extreme western corner, and the town Beni Mellal at the northernmost edge of Western High Atlas. The knotted rugs have typically a low pile and are often made with mixed materials such as wool, cotton, textile scraps and industrial yarns. Their designs are often highly individual containing Berber motifs, motifs found in Rabat rugs, distorted checkerboard fields and gestural abstract patterns- all in lively colors.
