Berber origin and types
These rugs originate from North Africa, particularly Morocco. The name 'Berber' refers to the Berber tribes who have been hand-weaving these rugs for centuries.
There are different types of Berber rugs, each with unique characteristics, such as:
- Beni Ourain rugs: These rugs, often recognized by their off-white background with black lines, come from the Atlas Mountains. They are known for their thick, plush texture.
- Kilim Berber rugs: These are thinner because they are flat-woven without pile. They are versatile and can serve as both a floor rug and a wall hanging.
Each type of Berber rug tells a story through its design, colors, and weaving techniques, reflecting the rich culture and history of the Berber tribes. By choosing an authentic Berber rug, you are investing in a piece of timeless craftsmanship.
At Hamming van Seventer, we have Berber rugs in 12 natural colors. These can be ordered in various sizes and qualities — even made to measure, up to 6 x 20 meters. Want to know more? Contact us for your Berber rug of choice.
