THIS RUG'S STORY:
You know how there's certain people that light up a room just by being in it? This rug is just like that! It pairs a classic checkered pattern with a fun, spunky mix of color. It's happy rug and I love the casual nature. She's a vintage Boujad rug that I found on my sourcing trip in Morocco back in October of 2019.
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.
