The majority of the weavers are women who live in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. Through rug weaving, we are able to create more jobs for female weavers who otherwise would not have the opportunity to do so. The community also thrives from rug weaving as the local farmers benefit from wool sales, and the local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Note: Due to the handmade nature of this rug, size may vary from as advertised by 3-4 inches. Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen. Imported
