Boujaad Kilim Glyph Ledger — Olive Field

A tranquil Boujaad flatweave from the Middle Atlas, this piece unfolds as a visual register of Amazigh glyphs—crossed lozenges of unity, seed diamonds, and feather-like guards—woven across an earthen olive field. The geometry forms a subtle language of balance, protection, and the natural rhythm of the Atlas landscape.

Weave & Touch

Hand-loomed kilim with a velvety surface achieved through tightly beaten wool wefts. The brocaded symbols shimmer in rose, indigo, saffron, emerald, and ivory—each rendered with precision. Lightweight, supple, and equally refined on the floor or displayed as a wall hanging.
