Moroccan Berber Wool Rug from Beni Ouarain

About This Piece

Vintage Design

The beni ouarain, composed of 17 tribes, are one of the Berber ethnic groups of the Maghreb and occupy the north-east of Morocco, in the Middle Atlas. This region is hot in summer, but becomes cold, wet and snowy in winter, with more difficult living conditions. A detail that is not really a detail, since the climate largely explains the history of the carpet. The Beni Ouarain rural community lives from sheep farming, but not just any sheep. In connection with nature and the cold nights in the mountains, the region's sheep have developed a thick, high-quality wool. This is particularly true of the Marmoucha breed of sheep. This breed has a long, ivory-coloured wool, except on the head where the wool is black. It is the latter that is used to draw the patterns of the carpets.
