Middle Atlas Berber rug
This Benchegra rug comes from the Middle Atlas Mountains, known for high-quality wool production. The Beni Ouarain tribes maintain a semi-nomadic lifestyle, moving between mountain pastures and lowland areas seasonally.
Rugs from this region were made for daily use as bedding or floor coverings, with simple designs preferred for practicality. This rug features a looped pile with a geometric design in soft grey and cobalt blue.

Underlay: When do I need it?
Underlay is recommended for lightweight rugs or those placed on hard floors like wood, tile or laminate. It helps prevent slipping, adds cushioning, reduces noise, and can extend the life of your rug.
Maintaining and caring for your rug
This vintage Berber rug is low maintenance. Vacuum gently using a low setting. Occasionally vacuum the reverse side to remove hidden dust. Shake the rug outdoors every few months to keep it fresh.
Stain treatment
Act quickly to prevent stains. Dilute spills with water and blot with a kitchen towel, starting at the edges. Do not rub. Ensure the rug dries thoroughly to prevent damage. Avoid bleach or chemical products as they may leave a white mark. For persistent stains, contact a professional cleaner—we’re happy to advise.
Delivery and returns
Your order will be dispatched with UPS within 5 working days. Worldwide delivery is available, with a small surcharge for remote locations. A tracking number will be provided once the rug is on its way.
If you’re not happy with your purchase, return the rug within 2 days of receipt for a full refund, excluding return postage.
