Beni Ouarain rugs are very thick and plush, made entirely from the wool of sheep grazing in the pastures surrounding the villages. The base of these rugs is traditionally ecru, adorned with dark brown geometric patterns. The wool's color is natural and untreated, corresponding to the color of the sheep from which it comes.
