Village weavers in Lahore, Pakistan make this rug using remnants from rug weaving villages in Iran. The handmade nature of the rug means that inconsistencies in the design are expected. The weavers are mostly women from Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India who create each rug with artisan skill. Regular vacuuming and professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. By purchasing this rug, you are helping to create jobs for female weavers who may not have had this opportunity before. The community also benefits 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.
