Lesser known by their true name are the exquisite soft coloured M’rirt rugs which have only recently emerged on the carpet market most probably instigated by the enormous demand for Beni Ouarain carpets. The quality of the modernM’rirt carpets is excellent. They are hand woven according to traditional Berber weaving and they are incredibly dense and sumptuous. The number of vibrant weaving traditions for the rugs was just as many as the Moroccan tribes. While some used natural dyes and dyed with henna, other tribes used brown, bold red, tangerine, magenta, rose and mauve dyes were used.
