Kilim Boujad Berber Carpet
Kilim Boujad is produced by tightly interweaving the warp and weft strands of the weave to produce a flat surface with no pile. This is technically tapestry weave have a hard-wearing flat, perfect for a high traffic area and a home with pets. Originally, the kilim was made by the nomads of the south of the country and was served to protect the ground of the mosques, the tents, yurts and the litters of the camels. It is now used as well for covering the ground outdoor and indoor. Traditional kilims use patterns based on two simple geometric shapes: the triangle and the diamond. Although manufactured without hair, the kilim is very resistant because of the double weft which gives a tight weave. A great advantage with a kilim is that most of them are reversible.
Boujad is a large town located between the southern flank of the Zaer-Zaiane territories and the northeastern edge of the Rehamna region. It is an important market center for weavings produced in the area from Ez-Zhiliga south to Beni Mellal that are referred to in the trade as ‘Boujaad’. They are, however, by no means homogeneous since the weaving tribes, though of Arab origin, are not part of a single confederation and are spread out over a relatively large area.
Moroccan kilims are single-knot carpets highlighted. It is the fineness of the drawing and the quality of the tightening that matters. The patterns are geometric, the tones are ethnic and the texture is resistant and durable. Their rendering is more flexible and lighter.
Kilims are now very popular because they fit easily into elegant and minimalist environments. They also find their place in many homes thanks to their many possibilities of use. Many people like to hang their kilims on the wall or use them as bedspreads because most of them are lightweight.
Berber women, who are the maneuvering leaders of the Moroccan carpet, spend weeks and sometimes months setting up a carpet. This time is justified by other household and family tasks. In general, the average time of weaving or knotting is two hours per day for each woman.
The Symbolism of the Berber carpet is the expression of a primordial fertility cult, originating from remote early civilizations. There is no other form of artisanal art in which this ancient symbolism remains so alive until today. This is the unique particularity significance of the Berber carpet.
