Why Choose aOriginal Beni Ourain Teppich?

The Beni Ourain rug style has become a global design icon, loved for its soft, high-pile wool and hand-drawn geometric lines. This piece offers more than just warmth underfoot—it brings cultural richness, artistic expression, and harmony into your space.

Handwoven from 100% natural sheep wool, it is naturally insulating, moisture-wicking, and hypoallergenic. The rug keeps your feet warm in winter and cool in summer—making it perfect for year-round use.

Authentic Moroccan Craftsmanship

Each Original Beni Ourain Teppich rug is a labor of love, woven over weeks by Berber women using techniques passed down through generations. These traditional methods rely on natural, untreated wool sourced from local sheep, giving each rug its distinctive texture and character.

The motifs often carry deep meaning, representing nature, protection, or femininity. This newly made rug maintains the authenticity of ancestral symbolism while offering a fresh and clean design suitable for modern homes.

Design & Colors

The design of this rug is simple yet powerful: a cream-colored wool base forms the foundation, intersected by hand-drawn black diamond or linear motifs. This classic contrast brings calm, balance, and depth to any space.

Its clean layout makes it ideal as a living room centerpiece, a bedroom grounding rug, or even as a layered base in a gallery-style hallway. The handmade finish ensures no two rugs are exactly alike.

The colors are undyed and natural—soft ivory from sheep’s wool and charcoal lines from plant-based pigments—ensuring durability without chemical treatments.

Feel & Comfort

Softness is the defining trait of Original Beni Ourain Teppich. The high-pile wool provides a cushion-like feel under your feet, ideal for barefoot walking or lounging.

This rug doesn't just warm your space visually—it retains heat, offering real comfort during cooler nights. Placed in a bedroom, reading nook, or nursery, it enhances both style and coziness.

Versatility in Interior Design

This rug’s timeless simplicity allows it to work seamlessly across various decor aesthetics:

  • Scandinavian: Clean lines and neutral tones match light wood and minimalist spaces.

  • Bohemian: Layered textures and tribal symbolism fit perfectly.

  • Rustic/Modern Farmhouse: Natural wool adds warmth and authenticity.

  • Urban Contemporary: Break up sleek spaces with soft, organic textiles.

Whether you place it beneath a coffee table or let it define an entire room, the effect is grounding and serene.

Eco-Friendly & Ethical

Our Beni Ourain rugs are made in alignment with fair trade principles, supporting Berber communities in rural Morocco. The production process is entirely sustainable: wool is locally sourced, dyes are plant-based, and no industrial machinery is used.

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.

Will I have to pay customs fees or import duties?

For US-customers, there is no customs fees (due to An agreement that went into effect on January 1, 2006, designed to create open and fair trade between the United States and Morocco.) For other international orders shipped outside of Morocco, please be aware that your country's customs office may impose import duties, taxes, or fees. These potential charges are the responsibility of the customer.

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.
