Handwoven using ancestral techniques, this piece reflects the essence of Beni Ouarain weaving: pur lines, understated geometry, and exceptional wool quality.
The design is composed of a subtle nested rectangular motif, tone-on-tone, creating a calm architectural rhythm. The palette remains intentionally restrained, combining natural ivory, soft beige, and light grey nuances, allowing the texture of the wool and the relief of the pattern to take center stage. This minimalist aesthetic makes the rug timeless and highly versatile.
Beni Ouarain rugs are prized for their thick, luminous wool and tactile depth, originally woven for warmth in the Atlas Mountains and today celebrated by designers and collectors worldwide.
