The weavers use natural and vegetable dyes including madder for red, walnut peel for dark brown, pomegranate peel for light brown, and sparak for yellow. The majority of the weavers are women who live in villages in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. Rug weaving provides jobs for these women and benefits local farmers who sell wool and local artisans who create natural dyes. As each rug is handmade, there may be variations in size and design. Regular vacuuming and professional cleaning will keep the rug looking new for years to come. Imported from Afghanistan.
