Solstice Beni Ouarain

£5,000.00

A rare and remarkable double-sided Beni Ouarain rug from the 1970s, offering versatility and unparalleled comfort. Handwoven in 100% natural Berber wool, this exceptional piece features a thick, luxurious 5 cm pile on one side for cosy winter warmth, and a lighter flat-weave surface on the reverse for cooler summer months.

Design & Character

Both sides showcase the iconic diamond motif, with an ombré effect on the long-pile winter side — subtle and delicate at one end, gradually intensifying to rich, deep definition at the other. The lighter, non-shaggy summer side presents consistent near-black diamonds, some containing charming naive tribal motifs. Flat weave finishes one end, while chunky tassels adorn the other, highlighting the weaver’s meticulous attention to detail.

This vintage masterpiece balances bold tribal artistry with the understated minimal elegance that has made Beni Ouarain rugs a designer favourite worldwide. A rare find, perfect for layering, statement living spaces, or collecting as an heirloom-quality piece.
