The weavers use natural vegetable dyes to give the rugs their rich colors. Due to the handmade nature of the rug, there may be size variations of up to 3-4 inches. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. The majority of the weavers who create these rugs are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and India. By supporting this product, you are helping to create jobs for female weavers who otherwise would not have the opportunity to do so. Additionally, the community thrives from rug weaving as local farmers benefit from wool sales and local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Imported
