Drops of Jupiter
Vintage Boujad
4’8”x6’9”
Drops of Jupiter // A unique vintage Boujad, which really spoke to us during our last trip to Morocco. The vibrant yellow and kelly green is a show stopper, and really different against the more muted pastel background colors. It is made of knotted wool on a cotton background and is low pile, finishing into a kilim section at the bottom. I might be inclined to do this one as a wall hanging rather than on the floor - it’s a work of art!

Vintage rugs have been sourced throughout Morocco. Each is hand woven by local Amazigh (Berber) women, generally in rural areas of Morocco, with weaving techniques passed down through generations, from mother to daughter. Each Amazigh tribe uses different techniques in their weaving or knotting, use of color, and use of symbolism or design, which is modified further by each individual. Vintage rugs typically use natural wool and natural colors developed from plant and vegetable dyes.
Because of the handmade nature and age of these rugs, each has lived a previous life and show signs of normal wear, which may include fading or discoloration, repairs, or other imperfections. These are normal and add to the character of the piece.
