Using natural and vegetable dyes like madder, walnut peel, pomegranate peel, and sparak, the weavers create a range of colors for their designs. The majority of the weavers are women living in villages who benefit from rug weaving as a source of income. Local farmers also benefit from wool sales and artisans create natural dyes for the weavers to use. Due to the handmade nature of these rugs, sizes may vary slightly. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. Note that color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen. Imported.
