Afghan weavers created these beautiful pieces using all-natural vegetable dye made from roots, flower petals, and tree bark to reflect the natural surroundings of the region. The benefits of rug weaving extend beyond the weavers themselves, as local farmers benefit from wool sales and local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. The majority of these skilled artisans are women who live in villages throughout Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and India. With your purchase, you are helping to create more jobs for these talented weavers who may not otherwise have had the opportunity to do so. Note: Due to the handmade nature of this rug, please expect slight variations in color, size, and design. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen. Imported.
