Story
Handwoven in Morocco by
The Weavers of Bouguemez
A staple of Moroccan culture, you’ll find a Beni Ourain rug in pretty much every house you visit. Hand-knotted from local sheep’s wool, each rug is luxuriously soft, with an extra-high pile.
While most Moroccan rugs on the market today are vintage, this beauty has been handcrafted exclusively for The Citizenry. Each rug takes 6 weavers a month to complete, made by a fair trade cooperative dedicated to preserving this lost art.
**Since each rug takes weeks to craft, we only receive 1 - 2 per month.**

Care
Basic care:
The raw, unrefined wool may include small, embedded natural fibers. Over time, these fibers will work their way to the surface – when they do, simply rake or lightly vacuum the fibers. No need to panic – shedding of loose fibers is normal with new wool rugs and will subside over time.
Treating stains:
If the stain was caused by liquid, act quickly to prevent from drying – use paper towels to absorb. When in doubt, professional dry cleaning is always going to be your best bet.
