Boucherouite Rugs

These rugs are often seen as creations of colourful improvisational design with use of a wide variety of recycled fabrics; cotton, sometimes wool, brocade, satin, nylons, patterned or plain. Old textiles and clothing carefully cut into strips add brushstrokes of colour to the weave.

The designs are bold, daring with strong use of this variety of colour and texture which can give life to many interiors. Boucherouites tend to bewitch and beguile with their sometimes mesmerising effects achieved with their captivating combinations of colour and design. They represent a truly fully recycled creation. They have freedom, rugged-looks, yet with soft charm and no laws; so a vintage piece for a chic home, a Boucherouite rug would be an ideal choice.

The concept of the Boucherouite originated in the 1960s in times when little or no access to wool; anything could be used to weave; and redundant textile fabrics made into another art form.
