Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women who live in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and India. By purchasing this rug, you are helping to create jobs for female weavers who may not otherwise have the opportunity to do so. The local farmers also benefit from wool sales, and local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Imported from Iran.
