I'm presently on a genuine mission to locate a huge, Authentic Beni Ourain Rug for our family room. These unbelievably rich carpets, made by the Beni Ourain clan and other neighboring clans in the mountains of Morocco, commonly include a dark jewel design and are woven into a cream closer view. A bona fide piece can be very exorbitant yet oh, my pursuit continues and my accumulation of motivation photographs keeps on developing . . .
I realize I am not the only one in my adoration for these basic, flexible carpets so here are my tips for purchasing a Beni Ourain floor covering from Marrakech. This is from my experience as it were. I don't purport to being a specialist using any and all means yet I am content with my buy, so my experience may help you as well.
Before I went I invested some energy investigating on the web and getting truly frightened and set away. I read you could just purchase Beni Ourains from the Atlas mountains else you would be ripped off, paying a lot for a bit of tat. I didn't encounter this, all things considered. The souks in Marrakech are brimming with rug and floor covering venders, with a considerable lot of them having towers of Beni Ourain carpets. I was ruined for decision, not by fakes or by too costly things but rather by truly lovely carpets that were a lot less expensive than anything half as pleasant back home. I purchased from the medina and have no second thoughts.
There are vintage Beni Ourains that were made forever and a day prior – these are wonderful, yet naturally expensive the same number of vintage things are. However, you can likewise get more current Beni Ourains, made by the Berber ladies today living in the North-Eastern Middle Atlas Mountains of Morocco. This doesn't mean they are phony – they are simply not vintage. More up to date Beni Ourain mats can be amazingly great worth, extremely flawless and astounding quality.
Once more, on the off chance that you complete a speedy Google you will go over a great deal of alarm anecdotes about phony floor coverings produced using engineered materials or fixed with cotton. Customary Beni Ourain floor coverings are produced using 100% sheeps fleece. I took a gander at two mat slows down and every one of the mats I took a gander at were 100% fleece, delightfully made supposedly 100% true. Check the nature of the floor covering yourself – check the back of it, the weave, the material. In the event that you think it looks all around made, be upbeat about it.
