The rug making process involves cleaning, washing, and dyeing the wool with vegetable dyes before weaving the rug. Due to its handmade nature, the size may vary slightly from the advertised dimensions. Regular vacuuming and professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women from Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, and Iran, and we aim to provide employment opportunities for female weavers through our business. The rug weaving industry also benefits local farmers through wool sales and local artisans who create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs.
