About the Item

The Beni Ouarain confederation is composed of seventeen tribes inhabiting the high mountain region of the northeastern Middle Atlas. Their rugs differ from other Berber weavings in that they are woven almost exclusively on an ivory background and decorated with abstract geometric motifs in undyed natural brown/black wool. The pattern is typically composed of an all-over grid of lozenges with little or no variation. This rug belongs to a specific rare subgroup, which is also my favourite, distinguished by having its pattern partially concealed. This carpet is featured in our gallery and web exhibition entitled 'ACHROME - Mid Century Modern White Berber Carpets'.
