The weavers use natural materials like madder roots, walnut peel, pomegranate peel and sparak wild flowers to create stunning colors like red, dark brown, light brown and yellow.

Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will ensure that your rug remains in pristine condition for years to come.
