Vintage Moroccan Boujad Carpet BJ03
This vintage Boujad has a painterly lozenge network, shifting from more regular geometric forms at one end to a meandering freeform pattern at the other. Zig zag/snake protection motifs frame the composition along both selvedges. Vibrantly woven in a time faded palette of orange, apricot, bright pink, sea green, lavender, charcoal, light grey, and ivory. Finished with a patterned flat weave band at one end. All wool with the exception of a few knots of turquoise cotton fibers.
