Boucherouite is one of our favorites at #marrakine, since this type of rug combines beautiful qualities:
Environmentally conscious and handmade! #green #ecofriendly #handmade. Berber women reuse cotton scraps to weave these beautiful rugs. We love visiting the cooperatives in the Ourika Valley, around Marrakech, a leading region in the weaving of this type of rug.
Woven from 100% recycled cotton, this rug has the advantage of being easy to maintain and less sensitive to dust.
Stylish, a real decorative piece in an interior since the choice of colors and design are often bold and harmonious! Each piece being unique and often very creative, we imagine them as well in a room placed on the floor as in wall decoration.
Please note that all our rugs are handmade thanks to the creativity and imagination of talented women weavers. Each rug is therefore unique, with its subtleties of color variations and/or slight imperfections that enhance its beauty and value.

Focus on the Boucherouite style
Moroccan Boucherouite rugs are unique creations, hand-woven from recycled cotton scraps, mainly by women artisans. These rugs, often colorful and eclectic, combine tradition and innovation, offering a raw and spontaneous artistic expression. The designs, which emerge directly from the imagination of the weavers, do not follow any pre-established rules, giving each rug its own singularity. These works are the result of meticulous and creative work, where each knot, each pattern, is a testimony to the dexterity and inventiveness of the craftswomen. Boucherouites are much more than simple utilitarian objects; they carry the soul of the women who wove them. Through their originality, they reflect the cultural richness of Morocco, while being an example of a circular economy ahead of its time, reusing materials to create unique pieces. These rugs are also part of a cultural resistance approach, transmitting ancestral knowledge while constantly renewing themselves. They are, finally, a symbol of the beauty of hand-made products and artisanal authenticity, far from standardized industrial productions.
How to choose your Boucherouite rug?
Choosing the right Boucherouite rug requires both aesthetic sensitivity and attention to detail. First, identify where you want to place your Boucherouite. Its lightweight and versatile nature makes it suitable for a variety of spaces, whether as a floor rug, sofa throw, or even a wall hanging. Second, pay close attention to the colors and patterns. Boucherouites offer a wealth of geometric patterns, each telling its own story. Select a design that complements your interior while reflecting your personal taste. Third, consider the quality of the weave. A good Boucherouite is tightly woven, with straight edges and bright colors that do not fade. Fourth, consider the provenance. An authentic Boucherouite, crafted using traditional methods, will bring that essence of authenticity that is sought after. Finally, think about maintenance. A Boucherouite, although robust, requires delicate care, especially when cleaning. With these elements in mind, you will be equipped to choose a Boucherouite rug that not only beautifies your space, but also lasts through time.
Install your Boucherouite carpet
1. Prepare the soil:
Before rolling out your Boucherouite rug, make sure the floor is clean and free of dirt or debris. If your floor is particularly slippery, consider using a non-slip underlay to prevent the rug from moving.
2. Determine the position:
Think about where you want the rug to be centered. Consider the surrounding furniture and make sure the rug is placed in a way that complements the layout of the room, whether that's under a table, in the center of the room, or next to your bed.
3. Unroll:
Unroll the carpet slowly and carefully. If creases have formed during transportation or storage, do not worry, they will disappear over time. To speed up this process, you can place heavy objects on the creased areas.
4. Adjust the furniture:
Once the rug is in place, readjust the furniture around it. If you place heavy furniture on the rug, this will also help flatten out any wrinkles.
Maintaining your Boucherouite carpet
Maintaining a Moroccan Boucherouite rug woven from recycled cotton, while preserving its beauty and durability, requires attention and delicate care due to the fragility of its fibers. Here are some tips for taking care of it:
- Regular but gentle vacuuming: Use a low-power vacuum cleaner or a soft brush to remove dust and surface dirt. Avoid hard brushes that could damage the carpet fibers.
- Avoid moisture: Recycled cotton is more likely to deteriorate when exposed to moisture. Avoid machine washing or excessively wetting the rug. If necessary, use a damp cloth to clean dirty areas, being careful not to soak the rug.
- Spot cleaning: If stains occur, gently dab the affected area with a clean, damp cloth, using a mild soap or a product specifically designed for natural fibers. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the cotton.
- Avoid direct sunlight: Recycled cotton can fade or weaken in the sun, so it is best not to expose your rug to prolonged direct light.
- Regular rotation: To avoid uneven wear, remember to rotate your rug from time to time so that all parts of it receive equal use.
- Hanging or professional cleaning: If the carpet is particularly dirty or needs a deeper cleaning, it is recommended to entrust it to a professional who will know how to treat it without damaging it.
- Avoid excessive friction: As Boucherouite is often fragile, avoid walking frequently or placing heavy objects on the carpet which could damage it.
- Storage: If you need to store your rug for an extended period of time, roll it up rather than fold it. Store it in a dry place, away from moisture and light.
By taking care of your Boucherouite rug regularly and delicately, you will be able to preserve its beauty and unique character for many years.
