The majority of the weavers are women living in villages in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India, and as HERAT ORIENTAL grows, it creates more job opportunities for female weavers. The community also benefits from rug weaving as local farmers sell wool and artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use. Due to the handmade nature of the rug, size may vary up to 3-4 inches. Regular vacuuming and professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. Note that color discrepancies may occur between the product and your computer screen. Imported.
