Contemporary Berber Rug - 296 x 245 cm

Modern Boujad rug | Handwoven wool rug with sculptural green and taupe patterns This modern Boujad rug juxtaposes two sculptural forms reminiscent of totems against a softly ivory background: a green shape that fades into ochre and grey bands, and a column of solid taupe brown standing apart on the right. The overall effect exudes a sober artistic elegance, resembling abstract sculpture more than traditional patterns; each shape is crafted from dense, long-pile wool, giving true dimension and a play of shadows to the composition. Hand-knotted by Berber women from the Boujad region of Morocco, this rug transposes the intuitive and free approach of tradition—both in colour and form—into a refined palette worthy of an art gallery. Soft fringes at both ends complete the piece, a traditional finishing detail that anchors its contemporary design in the authenticity of artisanal craftsmanship. With its airy ivory background and bold sculptural patterns, this modern Boujad rug brings an artistic and serene presence to interiors that favour sobriety, texture, and the authentic character of handmade items. Authentic Boujad artisanal craftsmanship Each rug is hand-knotted using traditional Boujad weaving techniques: Berber women shape a thickness of dense wool row by row, directly on the loom, working intuitively rather than from a pre-established model. This freedom of execution is at the heart of Boujad weaving; it allows a single piece to combine restraint and boldness, balancing a vast open space with isolated, confidently placed colourful shapes. Here, this same spirit of improvisation gives rise to a modern and refined composition, moving away from the denser and layered patterns more typical of tradition.
