This rug was woven in a very primitive way on flat wooden looms that lay on the ground, with 100% wool from their own sheep. All of the washing and natural vegetable dying of the wool is done in their villages. Due to the handmade nature of this rug, size may vary from as advertised 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 live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. By purchasing this rug, you are supporting female weavers and local farmers in the community.
