The majority of the weavers are women who live in villages throughout Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and India. By purchasing this rug, you are helping to create more jobs for female weavers who may not have had the opportunity otherwise. The local farmers benefit from wool sales, and the local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs.
