This Benchegra Berber rug comes from the Middle Atlas Mountains, a region known for its sheep and wool quality. The Beni Ouarain tribes have a semi-nomadic lifestyle, moving their flocks seasonally.

Originally woven for daily life, used as bedding, blankets or floor protection, these rugs often feature simple designs for practicality. This piece has a looped pile and a minimal design in teal, red and black on a natural wool background.

Underlay: When do I need it?

Use underlay if your rug is lightweight or placed on a hard surface like wood, laminate or tiles. Underlay prevents slipping, adds comfort, reduces noise, and can extend the life of your rug.

Maintaining and caring for your rug

This Midcentury Moroccan rug is low maintenance. Vacuum it occasionally on a low setting. Flip and vacuum the reverse side periodically, as dust can collect underneath. Shake it outdoors every few months to refresh the fibres.

Stain treatment

Treat spills quickly. Dilute with water and blot with a kitchen towel, working from the outside in. Avoid rubbing. Once wet, dry the rug thoroughly to prevent rotting. Do not use bleach or harsh chemicals, as these may leave permanent marks. For stubborn stains, professional cleaning is recommended. Contact us for help if needed.
