The Beni Ourain people lived in the Atlas Mountains (Morocco) from the ninth century AD onwards, and the name refers to 17 Berber tribes who primarily live there.
Traditionally, Beni Ourain rugs were made by women meticulously weaving tapestries from wool or recycled textiles at home, with little changing from generation to generation a lot of the techniques remain the same to this day,
The thick pile, woven, cream-coloured rugs are traditionally made from the wool of the breed of Beni Ourain sheep and have thin black lines criss-crossing to form a diamond shape. That symbol is actually an ‘X’ and is known to symbolise peace and harmony.

FAQ
How do I care for my products?
Cotton cushions: Spot clean with a damp, slightly soapy cloth. Do not machine wash. Hand wash only. Dry clean if needed by accredited dry cleaner. Ok to iron on a low heat. Do not tumble dry.

Please note: There are imperfections from the hand-dying process (small blotches, bleeding, etc). This adds to the character and charm of the pillow cover. Because the material is hand-dyed, each pillow is different. The pattern may vary slightly for your pillow.
Boucle cushions: Cold gentle machine wash or hand wash. Dry flat, do not tumble dry, do not iron.

What size insert is best for my cushion cover?
For a lush and inviting look, we suggest sizing up your cushion inserts to ensure a full and plump appearance (excluding lumbar cushions). As a general guideline, pair a 50cm x 50cm cover with a 55cm x 55cm insert. Please see additional details below to ensure the perfect fit:
50 x 30cm cushion = 50 x 30cm polyester insert
50 x 35cm cushion = 50 x 35cm feather insert
45 x 45cm cushion = 50 x 50cm feather insert or 50 x 50cm polyester insert
50 x 50cm cushion = 55 x 55cm feather insert
60 x 40cm cushion = 60 x 40cm feather insert
