Boujaad Kilim — Saffron Weave of Wanderers

From the Middle Atlas, this Boujaad kilim radiates a deep saffron glow—its field traversed by bands of luminous glyphs: lozenges, combs, ladders, and ancestral tracks rendered in cobalt, fuchsia, ivory, and emerald. Each symbol acts as a nomadic imprint, a coded memory of lineage, fertility, and migration.
