If there is any rug that can match up to the highest degree of luxury, it is going to be the Moroccan wool area rugs. The Moroccan style rugs originated from Morocco and were so much valued that they were used in palaces and sacred places.
The Berber women wove them back in 622 AD. Their daughters and granddaughters learned the art by only watching it being woven since their childhood. These tribal Moroccan area rugs were specially made for domestic usages like flooring and bedding.
Later, these Beni rugs were professionally made order by Eastern tribes- Beni Ourain, and Moroccan Berber made them were given as an award or gift to the high-class families.
The wool was then obtained from the Atlas Mountain sheep and was handspun to form yarn. Camel's hair as an alternative was the next best choice for the sheep wool. The wool was sometimes dyed and sometimes left to their original undyed plain color.
A neutral Moroccan rug is so beautiful that in the olden days, the makers were so superstitious that the rug's beauty would attract evil spirits. So to prevent rugs from any evil spirits or evil sighting, they slightly burned the rug's edges. The people those days believed that by burning the rug's edge would let bad spirits stay away from the rug.
