With intricate details woven in over years of dedication, the handmade nature of these rugs means that size may vary by up to 3-4 inches. Regular maintenance will keep your rug looking new for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women who live in villages throughout Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. As we grow, we are able to provide more jobs for these female weavers who otherwise may not have access to such opportunities. The community thrives from rug weaving as local farmers benefit from wool sales and artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for weavers to use in their designs. Imported.
