The use of natural dye not only creates beautiful colors but also provides an ecological alternative to chemical dyes. The handmade nature of the rug means that each piece is unique and may vary slightly in size, color, and design. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will ensure that the rug remains in pristine condition for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women who live in villages across Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and India. By creating job opportunities for these women, the rug weaving industry has a positive impact on the local communities.
