The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India, and rug weaving provides them with job opportunities that they would not otherwise have. The local community also benefits from wool sales and the creation of natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking like new for years to come. Imported. Note: Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen.
