A thick, sturdy Boujad rug from the 2000s, distinguished by its subtle yet striking graphic presence. Three vibrant diamond motifs, knotted in strawberry red wool and colorful yarns, run vertically down a dark beige field with lively abrash, framed by a striking checkered border. Each lozenge is unique in design, adding to the sense of movement and spontaneity. The beige-greyish wool in the ground suggests the rug originates from near the Atlantic coast.

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.
