Beni ouarain Berber rug

The Beni Ouarain rugs are currently the most popular rugs from Morocco. You can easily recognize these hand-woven rugs by the white, cream-like color and the black (often checkered) patterns. In addition, the rugs often have fringes on the short sides. The carpets are named after a village called ‘Beni Ouarain’ in the Mid-Atlas Mountains.

When buying a rug, always take a good look at the size in relation to the room where you will use the rug. Make sure your Beni Ouarian rug connects multiple elements in your living room. Think, for example, of your sofa and your coffee table(s). This ensures that your living room becomes one whole.

Handmade Beni ouarain rug

To make these beautiful rugs, our cooperative uses the wool of sheep. First the wool is washed and then dried in the sun. They then begin the process of tying the carpet on a traditional loom. Making a rug can sometimes take up to a month. A carpet can contain more than a million knots! Where the hand-woven rugs from Morocco distinguish themselves from other rugs is the high pile. This makes the rug feel woolly and it is soft on your feet.

We continue to invest in the personal development of the craftsmen. As a result, we can proudly guarantee that every purchase will benefit the maker of your beautiful rug. This is extremely important and the only way to maintain this traditional craft.
