The boucherouite rug is a modern intervention in the long history of the Moroccan Berber rug, where whimsy meets the humble "rag rug." These rugs are made from recycled fibers, and can include cotton, wool, or synthetics. Designs are most often asymmetrical, with a color explosion that befits the wall of a modern home, rather than the dusty landscape of their origin. They are truly a work of art, each unique to the weaver and the region, and there are no two rugs alike.

Boucherouite rug can be made with many different types of recycled textiles such as wool, cotton, synthetic fibers, Lurex, and nylon. This is what creates their amazing blends of textures and colors." Some will look tufted, others more rag-like, depending on how the materials are trimmed.
