The Heritage of Beni Mrirt wool rug Weaving
The Moroccan Beni Mrirt Wool Rug originates from the Mrirt tribe, known for producing the softest and most luxurious rugs in Morocco. These rugs are woven using traditional Amazigh (Berber) techniques passed down through generations.
Unlike other Moroccan rugs, the Beni Mrirt stands out for its dense weave, velvety texture, and refined finish. Each knot is tied by hand, and every rug reflects countless hours of dedication, precision, and cultural heritage.
This rug embodies the spirit of Moroccan craftsmanship — a perfect balance between ancestral art and modern living.
Premium Wool – Naturally Luxurious
Crafted from 100% pure sheep’s wool, this rug offers unmatched softness and resilience. Wool is a natural insulator, keeping your space warm during winter and cool in summer. Its subtle sheen and thick pile create a plush underfoot experience that feels indulgent every time you walk across it.
Our artisans source locally shorn wool, clean it using eco-friendly techniques, and spin it by hand before weaving. The result is a rug that is as sustainable as it is beautiful — free from synthetic fibers, toxic dyes, or industrial finishes.
Contemporary Elegance with a Moroccan Soul
The minimalist design of this Beni Mrirt Wool Rug makes it a stunning statement piece for modern interiors. Its subtle lines and creamy ivory tone reflect a calm, serene aesthetic, perfectly complementing wood, stone, or neutral color palettes.
Whether in a cozy living room, an elegant bedroom, or a contemporary office, this rug grounds your space with natural beauty and refined style. Its texture adds depth, while its simplicity allows surrounding décor to shine.

Handcrafted Excellence
Each Beni Mrirt rug is meticulously woven on traditional looms in small mountain workshops. The artisans—mainly Amazigh women—work patiently, knot by knot, crafting rugs that often take several weeks to complete.
This slow, deliberate process produces an exceptionally tight weave that ensures durability and longevity. Every rug is washed and brushed multiple times to enhance its softness and natural sheen. The slight variations in pattern and texture are not imperfections—they’re the signature of true handmade craftsmanship.
The Luxury of Simplicity
The Moroccan Beni Mrirt Rug epitomizes understated luxury. Its clean design speaks volumes without overwhelming your space. The warm ivory tones add light and comfort, while the thick pile provides a sense of coziness and elegance.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I clean my Moroccan rug?
Caring for your Moroccan rug is simple! For regular maintenance, we recommend gently vacuuming it 1-2 times a week (use a suction-only attachment, without a beater bar) and air it outside every few months. For minor spills, act quickly by blotting the area with a clean, dry cloth. If needed, use a small amount of water and a gentle soap. For deep cleaning, we strongly recommend seeking a professional rug cleaner who specializes in wool carpets to preserve the rug's natural fibers and vibrant colors for years to come.
◈ Vacuum Regularly → Use a low setting without a beater bar to protect the fibers.
◈ Blot Spills Immediately → Use a dry cloth for stains, gently dab with mild detergent and cold water.
◈ Protect from Moisture → Avoid excessive humidity and use a rug pad to extend its lifespan.
◈ Prevent Fading → Keep away from prolonged direct sunlight.
◈ Rotate Every Few Months → Ensures even wear and longevity.
◈ Fluff Maintain → If fibers flatten, gently brush with a soft-bristle brush.
◈ Deep Clean → Opt for professional hand-washing every 5 years or as needed.
◈ Sunbathe Monthly → If practical, let your rug in the sun occasionally. Sunlight's UV rays work as natural deodorizing and microbe protection.
◈ Avoid Harsh Chemicals → They can damage the natural wool fibers.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes, we are proud to ship our authentic Moroccan rugs to customers all over the world. We regularly ship to North America (USA & Canada), Europe, Australia, and many other destinations. If you have any questions about shipping to your specific location, please don't hesitate to contact us.
How long will my order take to arrive?
We ship via DHL Express or Aramex with FREE worldwide delivery, included at checkout. After placing your order, we typically require 2-3 days to process and dispatch your item. Expect your parcel to arrive within 6-15 business days, depending on your location. You will receive a tracking number via email as soon as your order is on its way.
Will I have to pay customs fees or import duties?
Due to recent U.S. tariff changes, imports from Morocco are subject to a 10% duty plus standard customs fees; however, under our Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) terms, we will take full responsibility for these import charges ourselves, so you won’t have to pay anything extra.
How do you package the rugs to make sure they arrive safely?
We guarantee that your rug will arrive safely and in excellent condition, having been thoroughly inspected, cleaned, and, if necessary, restored prior to dispatch. We then fold it carefully and wrap it in multiple layers of durable, weather-resistant material to ensure it is fully protected from moisture and handling during its journey to you. We take every precaution to ensure your rug arrives in perfect condition.
What is your return policy?
We want you to be completely happy with your purchase. If for any reason you are not satisfied with your rug, you may return it within 14 days of delivery.
To be eligible for a refund, the rug must be returned in its original, unused, and undamaged condition. Please note that for general returns, the customer is responsible for the full cost of the return shipping. We recommend using a trackable and insured shipping service.
Please remember that our rugs are handmade by artisans, not by machines. Slight variations in color, pattern, weave, and size are natural characteristics of these one-of-a-kind items. These charming imperfections are not considered defects but are part of the unique story and beauty of each piece.
Is Moroccan wool rugs durable and suitable for high-traffic areas?
Absolutely. Hand-knotted from 100% sheep wool, Moroccan rugs are renowned for their durability and resilience. Our rugs are perfect for living rooms, bedrooms, and other frequently used spaces, but be sure to follow care instructions, like rotating regularly, to keep it looking its best for years.
Do newly made wool Moroccan rugs shed?
It is completely normal for a new wool rug to shed a little at first. This is a natural characteristic of high-quality wool fibres and a sign of its authenticity. This initial shedding will decrease significantly over a few weeks with regular, gentle vacuuming.
Will the rug I receive look exactly like the one in the photo?
You will receive the exact rug shown in the photos. However, please remember that these are handmade items. We do our best to capture the colours accurately, but they may vary slightly depending on your screen's lighting and calibration. Any minor variations or "imperfections" in the pattern are part of the unique story and charm of your one-of-a-kind piece.
What are your rugs made of?
Our rugs are crafted from 100% natural, locally sourced sheep's wool. The wool's quality gives the rugs their signature softness, durability, and rich texture. The foundation (or warp) of the rug is sometimes made of cotton, which provides a strong and stable base for the wool knots.
