The villagers have been crafting these authentic tribal rugs for the last half-century and are very proud of their workmanship. This bag is made of 100% wool and is imported. Due to the handmade nature of the rug, its size may vary up to 3-4 inches from the advertised size. Regular vacuuming and professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. Buying this rug helps create more jobs for female weavers who otherwise would not have the opportunity to do so while also benefiting the local farmers who provide the wool and local artisans who create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Note: The handcrafted touch of artisan skill creates variations in color, size, and design. If buying two of the same item, slight differences should be expected. Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen.
