The natural dyes used include madder for red, walnut peel for dark brown, pomegranate peel for light brown, and sparak for yellow. The handmade nature of the rug means that slight variations in color, size, and design may occur. The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India, and creating job opportunities for them has greatly supported their families. Local farmers also benefit from wool sales and local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Imported.
