Features: Hand-woven by weavers from the Hazara tribe in Afghanistan Made with 100% wool and vegetable dyes Knot count of 160 per square inch and pile height of 0.25 inches Unique design from the south Caucasus region Beautiful colors of red, ivory, blue, green, gold, navy, and tan Story Behind the Art: This particular rug was woven by the village weavers within the Hazara tribe in the Bamyan province of Afghanistan. Those vegetable dyes most commonly used are madder, walnut peel for dark brown, pomegranate peel for light brown, and sparak which is a wild flower from the steppes, used for yellow. Due to the handmade nature of our rugs, the size may vary from as advertised by 3-4 inches. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women, who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan and India. As we grow, 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.
