Features: Unique, one-of-a-kind piece of world art Made by Turkoman tribes in the Northern region of Afghanistan Pile-less, flat-weave floor covering made of 100% wool with pure vegetable dyes Knot count of 180 Multi-color design Story Behind the Art: Master Turkoman weavers in the Northern part of Afghanistan have created the beautiful pattern of this rug. These beautiful designs are achieved by interweaving the various colors of the vertical and horizontal strands of the kilim. It can be used as a wall hanging or as a floor covering. Due to the handmade nature of our kilims, the size may vary from as advertised by 3-4 inches. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your kilim 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. Please note that the handcrafted touch of artisan skill creates variations in color, size, and design. If buying two of the same item, slight differences should be expected. Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen. Imported from Afghanistan.
