The use of all-natural vegetable dye in the rug-making process makes it an ecological alternative to chemical dyes. The weavers use roots, flower petals and tree bark to make these dyes, which are not only eco-friendly but also reflect the natural surroundings of the region. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. The handmade nature of these rugs means that sizes may vary from the advertised size by 3-4 inches. The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran and India. Purchasing these rugs not only creates jobs for female weavers but also benefits local farmers who sell wool and local artisans who create natural and vegetable dyes. Please note that as this is a handcrafted item, slight variations in color, size and design may occur. Color discrepancies may also occur between the product and your computer screen. Imported.
