The kilim can function as a wall hanging or floor covering. Each kilim's size may vary by 3-4 inches due to its handmade nature. Regular vacuuming and professional cleaning will keep your kilim looking new for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women living in villages across Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. With each purchase, we are able to create more jobs for female weavers who otherwise would not have employment opportunities. The community also benefits from rug weaving as local farmers profit from wool sales and local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Note: The handcrafted nature of this product 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.
