Features: One-of-a-kind antique rug from the 1920's Made of 100% wool pile and vegetable dyes Symmetric and geometric design Knot count of 160 per square inch Pile height of 0.25 inches Story Behind the Art: Crafted by village weavers in the town of Heriz, this rug is a testament to the rich history of the Azerbaijan province. The rug-making process includes cleaning, washing, and dyeing the wool before weaving it with vegetable-dyed wool. Due to the handmade nature of the rugs, the size may vary from the advertised size by 3-4 inches. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women who reside in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and India. With every purchase, we are able to create more job opportunities for these female weavers who would not have had the chance otherwise. The community also thrives from this rug weaving as local farmers benefit from wool sales, and local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Imported.
