Features: Antique Turkish Oushak design 100-percent hand-spun wool All vegetable dyes Knot count of 280 Pile height of 0.25 inches Made by Afghan weavers in the province of Bamyan Comes in black and ivory colors Story Behind the Art: This particular rug was made by the Hazara tribes in the province of Bamyan, Afghanistan. Due to the handmade nature of the rugs, the size may vary from as advertised by 3-4 inches. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women, who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan and India. As we grow, we are able 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.
