The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan and neighboring countries. Rug weaving provides them with job opportunities that they might not otherwise have had, and it also benefits the local farmers who sell wool to the artisans. Note: Due to the handmade nature of this rug, sizes may vary by up to 3-4 inches. Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen. Regular vacuuming and professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. Imported from Afghanistan.
