Zulma
THIS RUG'S STORY:
Zulma is a lovely Boujad uncovered from the Middle Atlas Region in Morocco. From the Arabic word meaning "darkness/shadow", I named this vintage beauty after the bold darker purple tones that make up the background color of the rug. Paired with light pink, hot pink, lavender, and black, she's a true showstopper!
ABOUT MOROCCAN RUGS:
Each vintage Moroccan rug is hand woven and knotted by Berber women of the tribal region specified. This level of craftsmanship can take up to weeks or months to complete a single rug. Weaving techniques have been passed down through the generations. The patterns, designs, and colors in each rug vary with each rug, weaver, and tribe – so each piece is truly a unique work of art and 2 pieces will never be the same. Often these rugs have been handed down through the families who created them, and have been uncovered from the mountain and rural areas of Morocco.
