Features: 100% wool pile with cotton foundation and all-natural vegetable dyes Pile height of 0.25 inches and knot count of 200 per square inch Hand-loomed using special tools Brown, beige, and black colors Story Behind the Art: This rug was handcrafted by weavers in the Bhadohi village of the Varanasi region in India, where they re-create the original Gabbeh design. Due to the handmade nature of this rug, its size may vary up to 3-4 inches from the advertised size. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will help maintain its quality for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women who reside in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. Through this rug's production, we can create more job opportunities for female weavers who would otherwise not have access to them. Additionally, the local farmers benefit from wool sales and the local artisans can create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Imported. Please note that the handcrafted touch of artisan skill creates slight variations in color, size, and design.
