The rug-making process involves cleaning, washing, and dyeing the wool, which is then woven into the rug using vegetable-dyed wool. As a result of the handmade nature of these rugs, their size may differ by up to 3-4 inches from the advertised size. Regular vacuuming and professional cleaning will help to maintain the rug's quality for years to come. Most of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and India. By providing them with employment opportunities, we are empowering them to improve their lives and those of their families. Rug weaving also benefits the local farmers who sell their wool to the weavers and the local artisans who create the natural and vegetable dyes used in rug making. Note: Due to the handcrafted nature of these rugs, variations in color, size, and design may occur, making each rug a one-of-a-kind piece. Color discrepancies may also exist between the product and your computer screen. Imported.
