This piece was made by artisans in Had Oued Ifrane.
Had Oued Ifrane is nestled in the Middle Atlas Mountains just north of Ain Leuh.
This weaving style is called Boucherouite.
Boucherouite (pronounced boo-shay-reet) rugs were not originally intended to be sold as they were mostly used by the Berbers in their own homes, as modest carpets. Some called them 'rag rugs' as they are made of various recycled pre-used clothing or textile scraps.
* Please note, the width shrinks in parts due to the nature of the materials.
