Features: One-of-a-kind design 100-percent wool with pure vegetable dyes Geometric pattern in shades of red, gray, rust, navy, green, and black Handcrafted by village weavers in the province of Balkh located in the Northern part of Afghanistan Knot count of 180 Story Behind the Art: This kilim rug is handcrafted by village weavers in the province of Balkh located in the Northern part of Afghanistan. Kilims are known as pile-less, flat-weave floor coverings, which are achieved by interweaving various colors of the vertical and horizontal strands of the kilim. The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. As we grow, we are able to create more jobs for female weavers who otherwise would not have the opportunity to do so. The community also thrives from rug weaving as the local farmers benefit from wool sales, and the local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Due to the handmade nature of our kilims, the size may vary from as advertised by 3-4 inches. Note: Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen. Imported.
