A highly unusual, eccentric flatweave from the early 2000s, featuring an electrifying lozenge pattern arranged in a zigzag layout set against a dark brown ground. The strong color contrast, joyful play of bold hues, and added variations make this rug a highly desirable piece and a striking visual statement. Please note: this rug should not be vacuumed with a powerful vacuum cleaner and is best placed in a low-traffic area of the home.

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.
