The weavers use natural materials such as madder, walnut peel, pomegranate peel, and sparak to create the beautiful colors in this rug. Each rug is handmade and may vary in size by 3-4 inches. By purchasing this rug from Herat Oriental through Worldstock, you are supporting over 2,000 local village weavers and their families. The majority of these weavers are women who would otherwise not have the opportunity to work. The community also benefits from wool sales and the creation of natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. Note that due to the handmade nature of this rug, slight variations in color, size, and design should be expected. Color discrepancies may also occur between the product and your computer screen.
