Beni Mrirt Velvet Plain — Sand Field

Beni Mrirt Velvet Plain — Sand Field

Beni Mrirt Velvet Plain — Sand Field (290 × 250 cm)

A serene Beni Mrirt ground weave from the Middle Atlas, celebrated for its velvety hand and dense, even pile. The sand field reads as a modern neutral—quietly luminous, with subtle tonal variegation that reveals the direction of the wool nap and the artisan’s finishing comb.
