Elegant Smoke Blue & Sahara Sand Wool Rug - Handmade Moroccan Beni Ourain Rug - Striped Berber Area Rug for Living Room | Afrikesh
This Beni Ourain rug is woven in smoke blue, sahara sand, and deep charcoal on a natural ivory ground. A bold rectangular block of sand sits framed within a smoke blue border in the upper field, while clean charcoal stripes run across the lower half, giving the piece a calm, architectural quality unlike anything mass-produced.
The smoke blue frame draws from the open skies and still waters that edge the Atlas Mountains, a color the weaver carries in memory from a landscape seen since childhood. The charcoal stripes are inspired by the layered horizons of the Moroccan landscape, mountain ranges folding one behind another at dusk. The warm sand block at the center holds the composition like the sun-baked earth of the Saharan plains.
Why you'll love it:
- Authentic Beni Ourain, hand-knotted by Amazigh artisans in our Moroccan workshop
- Woven in organic natural wool, no synthetic dyes or materials
- Smoke blue, sahara sand, and charcoal on an ivory ground with knotted fringe
- Custom sizes available, woven to order in 3 to 5 weeks.
- Ships worldwide in 4 to 7 business days.

Made by hand on a traditional loom in our workshop in Morocco. No machines, no synthetics, every knot tied by hand. Natural wool softens and settles the longer it lives in a home, becoming more itself with every year.
Pair with raw linen, warm wood, and matte ceramics to let the blue and sand breathe. Beautiful in a bedroom or a light-filled living room.
Custom-Made Rug Notice: This rug is woven specifically for you after your order is placed. As with all authentic handmade creations, slight irregularities in weave, texture, dimensions, and pattern placement may occur. Color tones may also appear slightly different due to lighting conditions, screen settings, and digital photography. These natural variations are part of the rug's authentic handmade character and make each piece truly one of a kind. Questions welcome, we are always happy to help.
