Description

This authentic vintage hand knotted area rug is a Boujad (Boujaad) carpet from the Mid Atlas Mountain region of Morocco. Densely hand knotted and patterned in linen.

FREE SHIPPING We air freight direct to you from Morocco with DHL Express (tracked). Delivery 6 to 8 business days.

Hand selected in Morocco, and each has a storied history lending to their beautiful worn nature. Because of their age, any imperfections, fading or flaws are not considered defects, instead, they tell the story of where they have been, the life of the rug before they were in our collection. These vintage rugs are handwoven by the Berber women of tribes in the mountain and rural regions of Morocco, each is a unique piece of art, no two are the same.

We photograph our rugs in natural light to portray them in the most accurate color representation as possible.

When it comes to Moroccan rugs, the term ‘vintage’ is loosely bandied about. To be honest, Berber peoples never produced enough rugs to supply today’s vintage market in the quantities we see. There are just too many rugs being sold for them all to be authentically vintage or mid century. Many are washed, chemically aged, sun faded and the pile cut low to look like a vintage rug. It’s common for new rugs to be bashed and beaten to look old. In the last year or so, a rash of pastel and neutral toned rugs have been treated like this and marketed as antique or vintage because they are so popular.

We DO NOT spray rugs with chemicals, and we do not condone any of the practices described above .

We are NOMAD HOUSE, international wholesale suppliers, and a direct source for genuine Moroccan Rugs. We are a generational family business with 3 bases in, Morocco: Marrakech, Boujad (Middle Atlas) and Imlil (High Atlas) …Plus a NZ outlet in Christchurch
