The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. By creating job opportunities for these female weavers, the community thrives 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. The handcrafted touch of artisan skill creates variations in color, size, and design. Please note that slight differences should be expected if buying two of the same item.
