Rug Details
One-of-a-kind gently used rug — only one in stock!
100% wool pile on mixed fiber foundation
Dimensions: 2'5" x 6'0" (73 cm x 182 cm)
Plush pile: approximately 1.2" (3 cm)
Color palette: inky black, dusty rose pink, cadmium red, silvery gray, slate gray
These rugs are prized for their expressive design and construction. Their freeform edges meander and wiggle, unbound by constrictions of mass production
Curator's Notes
Motifs
Moroccan rugs don’t come with a key. As with any painting or poem, their motifs have many subjective interpretations. Originally made for personal use, these rugs took months to weave, documenting a shifting tide of events and emotions in the weaver’s life
A simple, but classic design—zig-zag patterns represent water as a vital element in life
Region of Origin
Azilal rugs typically have abstract, painterly designs, and are similar to rugs from Ourika. These pieces can be distinguished by their bright colors, facilitated by the use of cotton in addition to wool.
Material Details
This rug is called a boucherouite, which derives from bu sharwit, a Moroccan Arabic term meaning 'piece of cloth'. Reflective of the ever-shifting post-modern, post-consumer landscape, these 'everything rugs' are woven with colorful miscellaneous fiber scraps. In this piece, a wool pile is knotted onto mixed-fiber wefts and textured wool warps.
