About Beni M'guid:
The BENI M'GUILD tribe comes from the northern Middle Atlas Mountains of Morocco and due to the harsh climate usually produce the densest, heaviest rugs. The pile is thick and the rugs usually have a tone-on-tone design. The Beni M'guild region in the western Middle Atlas of Morocco can be quite harsh in the winter months so their rugs are piled very thickly to protect them from the cold. Woven by the women on a vertical loom they usually have simple geometric designs running across or over the rug with a background of red, brown, white or sometimes blue.
