About the Item

Beni Ourain rug As stunning vintage Moroccan rug in great condition. This beauty has a pattern with beautiful color accent and a warm butter cream base. The shades of orange and aubergine purple are naturel dye. Beni Ourain rugs have a story to tell. The woolly Berber rugs have character and soul. This makes these Moroccan rugs so special and beautiful. They are a refelection of everyday life. The Beni Ouarain rugs are very popular and can be found in the international glossy magazines. The rugs are beautiful and warm. Handmade and unique, so only one copy available. The Beni Ouarain are a group of 17 Berber tribes in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. The Beni Ourain rug was originally used as a warm blanket or cape, protecting the cold winters of the Atlas Mountains. The Moroccan rugs are characterized by a simple abstract geometric motif, hand knotted in pure wool. The real vintage Beni Ourain rugs you will never find wider than 220 cm / 7". So wider ones are likely new made and not vintage. The size between 200 cm and 220 cm is very hard to find. We think the vintage ones have real character and spirit. It is an expression of the daily life experiences of the persons who made it. The wool is cream colored. It can have some differences in tone depending the wool color of the sheep. Snow white vintage Beni Ourain rugs do not exist. Styling with a Beni Ourain rug The beauty of the rugs is that they are timeless and blend in every interior. Or sometimes we say that interior blends with the rug. Nowadays the Moroccan rug trend is very hot. A lot of designers and stylists use them for their projects. There is no interior magazine you can read without seeing a Moroccan carpet in it. If you want an unique piece and don't want to get a mass produced rug, we think a handmade rug from Morocco is definitely an excellent choice. The rugs will look amazing in any boho-chic environment but also in a contemporary Scandinavian decor. Adding a Moroccan rug to your interior will give your space an unique touch and some subtle Moroccan flair. Of course these rugs are not only suited for your living room. They will look fabulous and elegant in your bedroom and playful in the kids room.
