Two broad ochre triangles meet at a narrow waist in this 250 × 150 cm Boujaad wool rug. Black-and-ivory checks fill the left side, while closely spaced horizontal stripes occupy the right, framing the central hourglass in contrasting scales of pattern.

Provenance & Craft

From Atelier des Atlas, this handwoven Amazigh rug has a textured wool pile with visible horizontal rows. At the short end shown in the foreground, a narrow cream woven band carries dark linear accents and finishes in loosely grouped cream fringe.

Design Vocabulary

The ochre field widens toward both short ends, dividing the patterned sides along long diagonal boundaries. On the left, the checks vary in width and become elongated bars in places. On the right, fine ivory lines cross a black ground, their uneven spacing adding movement within the repeated stripes.
