Sunshine
THIS RUG'S STORY:
Sunshine is a gorgeous find from the Boujad tribal region. It reminds me of a sunny summer day - incorporating the prettiest mauve pink, cream, and marigold colors. It is the perfect mix of soft and vibrant!
This lightly colored rug is a unique find, as most Moroccan rugs tend to be very bold in color. The subtle diamond pattern gives it versatility.
ABOUT MOROCCAN RUGS:
Each vintage Moroccan rug is hand woven and knotted by Berber women of the tribal region specified. This level of craftsmanship can take up to weeks or months to complete a single rug. Weaving techniques have been passed down through the generations. The patterns, designs, and colors in each rug vary with each rug, weaver, and tribe – so each piece is truly a unique work of art and 2 pieces will never be the same. Often these rugs have been handed down through the families who created them, and have been uncovered from the mountain and rural areas of Morocco.
