To preserve the good parts of these rugs, they are put together as a patchwork rug. These remnants come from the rug weaving villages of Iran but are made into rugs by village weavers in Lahore, Pakistan. Due to the handmade nature of this rug, inconsistencies in its design are a natural characteristic. The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. By purchasing this rug, you are helping 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. Please note that the size may vary from as advertised by 3-4 inches due to the handmade nature of the rug. Maintenance: Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. Imported.
