Stardust Beni Ouarain

£3,000.00

A rare and beautifully handwoven Beni Ouarain rug from Morocco, dating back to the late 1950s to early 1960s. Crafted in 100% natural sheep’s wool, this vintage piece features a bold diamond motif in deep natural brown-black tones, showcasing the timeless artistry of Berber weaving.

Design & Character

Unlike many traditional Beni Ouarain rugs, this piece is unusually compact and square in proportion, making it perfectly suited to modern interiors with more confined spaces. Its thick, sumptuous pile invites tactile delight, while the large-scale diamonds convey the authentic tribal elegance synonymous with mid-century Moroccan craftsmanship. Traditionally, rugs of this type were used as sleeping carpets during cold Atlas winters, which makes this smaller format both unique and exceptionally versatile.

A truly rare and highly collectible example, combining heritage, authenticity, and a contemporary sensibility that works beautifully in today’s homes.
