Vintage Beni M’Guild Rug – Indigo Geometry & Timeless Elegance

Circa 1960s–1970s · Handwoven in the Middle Atlas Mountains, Morocco

This exceptional Beni M’Guild rug is a rare vintage piece, handwoven by Berber women artisans in the Middle Atlas. Crafted entirely from natural sheep’s wool, it features a striking indigo blue geometric composition layered over a soft ivory base — a contrast both powerful and refined.

The natural fading of the pigments over time has created a beautifully nuanced patina, giving the rug depth, movement, and quiet sophistication.


🧭 Symbolic Structure & Ancestral Meaning

The bold chevron and triangular forms represent protection, strength, and spiritual grounding in Amazigh symbolism.

Framed by intricate border motifs, the design feels structured and architectural — almost like woven calligraphy across wool.

Its strong vertical movement makes it especially elegant in elongated spaces, hallways, bedrooms, or minimalist interiors that need character without visual noise.


🪶 Dense Wool with a Luxurious Hand Feel

Beni M’Guild rugs are known for their insulating, dense wool — traditionally woven to endure the cold winters of the Atlas Mountains.

This piece has a medium-to-dense pile, offering warmth, softness, and durability. Underfoot, it feels substantial yet refined — perfect for grounding a contemporary living space or adding contrast to a neutral interior.


🌱 A True Vintage Treasure

As a genuine mid-20th-century rug, subtle irregularities in weave and tone are part of its authenticity. These variations are not imperfections — they are the visible trace of the artisan’s hand and the passage of time.

Hand-knotted.
Naturally dyed.
One of a kind.

Once this piece finds its home, another like it will not exist.

A soulful heirloom from the Atlas Mountains — warm, grounding, and one of a kind.

                        Boucherouite rugs:

                        Boucherouite rugs have the advantage of being washable with soap and water. Although it is true that domestic washing machines normally do not support so much weight of a wet rug, there are laundries with industrial machines adapted to this kind of weight. If you decide to hand wash it at home, just make sure that it is well rinsed and dried in the sun very well!

                         

                        Beni ourain rugs / Azilal rugs:

                        For this type of rugs made of 100% natural untreated sheep's wool, you can vacuum it frequently, you just have to avoid rotating brushes. The first few days you may notice that your rug is shedding wool into balls and that the vacuum bag fills up quickly. This is a normal process that after a few days will stabilize.
                        Our tip for a home cleaning with natural products is to make a mixture with baking soda and coarse salt, spread the mixture on the rug and let it act for one or two hours, and vacuum well. The bicarbonate serves to neutralize and disinfect naturally and the salt drags away any dust deposited on the rug.

                        It is recommended that in the season of more sun, you take advantage to air the rug and give it the sun.

                        For small liquid stains (coffee, wine, tea ... etc) act immediately by applying directly the mixture of baking soda and salt (a small pile on), let it act for about 30 minutes, and vacuum! This mixture makes it absorb the liquids.

                        For a complete and deep cleaning, we recommend for any type of wool rug, to contact a specialized professional.

                         

                        Vintage rugs:

                        Vintage rugs are delicate pieces, and that is why we recommend cleaning with the vacuum cleaner in soft mode, and for a deep cleaning better take it to a professional.

                         

                        How do I save my rug?

                        If you wish to save your Berber rug for a season, you can do so by rolling it up and sprinkling a mixture of baking soda, salt and lavender flowers on it in a closed cotton bag. 

                        The baking soda acts as an odour neutralizer and disinfectant, the lavender flowers act as a natural insect repellent and give a pleasant aroma during the time it is rolled up. The salt will help you to drag this mixture when you vacuum it up the moment you are going to use it again!
