Features: One-of-a-kind rug made from remnants of antique hand-knotted wool rugs Handmade by village weavers in Lahore, Pakistan 100 percent wool with vegetable dyes Knot count of 250 per square inch Pile height of 0.5 inches Features colors such as brown, red, beige, pink, navy, gold, and tan Story Behind the Art: The remnants used to create this patchwork rug come from torn or damaged pieces of Persian Antique rugs that could no longer be used as one whole rug. These remnants are sourced from rug weaving villages in Iran but are woven together by female village weavers in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. As a community-driven initiative, this rug weaving provides jobs for female weavers who may not otherwise have the opportunity to work. The local farmers also benefit from wool sales, and the local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Due to the handmade nature of this rug, expect variations in color, size, and design. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. Imported.
