Features: Unique one-of-a-kind design Authentic and primitive charm 100% wool pile and cotton foundation All natural and vegetable dyes Hand-loomed by Gabbeh villagers from the Shiraz province of Iran Pile height: 0.25 inches Knot count: 200 per square inch Story Behind the Art: This rug was created in the Varanasi region of India, in the Bhadohi village, where weavers re-create the original Gabbeh design. The handmade nature of the rugs means that the size may vary from as advertised by 3-4 inches. The majority of the weavers are women, who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. By creating more jobs for female weavers, this community thrives from 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. Note: The handcrafted touch of artisan skill creates variations in color, size, and design. If purchasing two of the same item, slight differences should be expected.
