Crossroads of Beni Ourain – Beni Ourain Rug in Stepped Path Design
Crossroads of Beni Ourain – Beni Ourain Rug in Stepped Path Design
Handwoven by the women of the Central Middle Atlas, the Crossroads of Beni Ourain rug is a cartographic composition of crossings and walkways. Inspired by ancestral footpaths that crisscross Amazigh highland villages, this Beni Ourain piece translates daily rhythm into geometry.
Its rich ivory base offers a tactile softness underfoot, while the dark linear glyphs trace out stepped paths and intersections—a nod to journeys taken, choices made, and destinies shaped. The understated palette makes it a quietly powerful piece in modern interiors.
