Beni Ourain is the classic Moroccan Berber rug: thick, soft, undyed cream wool marked with a fine charcoal or brown diamond lattice. Woven by the Beni Ourain confederation of tribes in the Middle Atlas mountains, originally as bedding and blankets against the mountain cold, these rugs have become one of the defining looks of modern and minimal interior design.
Their appeal is simple: a deep, plush pile that feels wonderful underfoot, a quiet neutral palette that suits almost any scheme, and hand-drawn geometry that is never quite regular, so every piece is individual.
