The Purple Boujaad vintage rug, measuring 355 x 215 cm, is a stunning handwoven creation from Morocco’s Boujaad region in the Middle Atlas mountains. Crafted by Berber artisans from 100% wool, this rug offers a plush, thick pile that combines softness with lasting durability. Aged between 20 and 50 years, its vibrant purple shade sets it apart, a bold and rare feature among vintage Moroccan textiles, exuding timeless character.
The rug’s design features abstract geometric patterns—diagonal lines, diamonds, or checkerboards—woven with the weaver’s unique flair and rooted in Berber tradition. The rich purple backdrop may weave in contrasting tones like cream, mustard, or red, with subtle abrash (color variations) adding depth and visual interest. Tribal motifs, such as zig-zags or hooks, might appear, symbolizing elements like protection or nature, enhancing its cultural storytelling.
Originally made for personal use, this rug carries an authentic vintage feel, with possible slight wear or fading that only amplifies its charm. Professionally cleaned, it retains its natural imperfections, ensuring its one-of-a-kind appeal. At 355 x 215 cm, its generous size makes it a striking centerpiece for a spacious living room or dining area, effortlessly blending utility with artistry. The Purple Boujaad vintage rug is a rare find, merging vibrant color, masterful craftsmanship, and Moroccan heritage into a textile that’s both a functional piece and a captivating work of art
