Features: Highly distinctive design featuring floral medallion and all-over patterns Made of 100% wool Knot count of 200 with a pile height of 0.25 inches Handcrafted by skilled village weavers in Kerman, Iran Variations in color, size, and design created by artisan skill Story Behind the Art: This rug is made by village weavers in Kerman, Iran, a well-known rug weaving province. The process of rug making includes cleaning, washing, and dyeing the wool, and then weaving the rug with vegetable-dyed wool. Due to the handmade nature of the rugs, the size may vary up to 4 inches. The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, and Iran. By creating jobs for female weavers, we are able to help support their communities. The local farmers also benefit from raising sheep for wool, and local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. Please note that color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen.
