All washing and natural vegetable dying of the wool is done in their villages, ensuring exquisite quality. The majority of the weavers are women, and purchasing this rug helps create jobs for female weavers who would otherwise not have the opportunity to do so. The community also benefits from rug weaving as local farmers benefit from wool sales and local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for weavers to use in their designs. Imported.
