The Beni Ouarain or Beni Ourain rugs are the most famous rugs of the Moroccan Middle Atlas. Their fame is well-established; they are true works of art. The Beni Ouarain tribe is made up of several different Berber tribes, some of which still make their living from sheep farming in the Atlas Mountains. The sheep produce exceptional, high-quality wool, and it is from this wool, in natural colors such as white, ivory, and ecru, that the famous Beni Ouarain rugs are woven. The boldness and creativity of the women of the Berber tribes in the Atlas Mountains allow them to create freely based on their own experience, perfectly combining shapes and colors, using only plant-based dyes. This contemporary artistic approach, unique to each Berber woman, guarantees you a unique and rare piece. The Béni Ouarain rug is woven from 100% natural sheep's wool, giving it a soft texture. It is hand-knotted on a traditional wooden loom using ancestral skills passed down through generations. Each rug has imperfections and an irregular appearance. Since the craftsmanship is artisanal, you can be sure that you are treating yourself to a timeless piece of history, authenticity, and tradition. Construction: Handmade. Materials: Wool on wool. Approximate dimensions: 2.27m x 1.61m.
