Features: Unique William Morris design with floral motifs and arabesques Handcrafted by skilled village weavers in northern Afghanistan Made of 100% wool for durability and comfort Knot count of 190 for intricate detail Low pile height of 0.25 inches for easy maintenance Colors include gray and ivory Story Behind the Art: These William Morris designs were originally made between 1878 and 1881, however these designs are still among the European designs copied by China, Pakistan and India. 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.
