Features: Handmade with high-quality hand-spun wool and pure vegetable dyes Design inspired by Antique Turkish Oushak rugs Knot count of 200 per square inch Pile height of 0.25 inches Beautiful array of colors, including burgundy, ivory, gray, brown and green Story Behind the Art: This Afghan Vegetable Dye Oushak rug is crafted by Turkoman weavers in the Northern part of Afghanistan and by Hazara weavers in central Afghanistan. The weavers use natural materials for their vegetable dyes, such as madder for red, walnut peel for dark brown, pomegranate peel for light brown, and sparak for yellow. Each rug is handmade and may vary up to 3-4 inches in size. Regular vacuuming and professional cleaning will keep your rug looking like new for years to come. The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. By creating more jobs for female weavers, the community thrives as local farmers benefit from wool sales and local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Note: Due to the handmade nature of this product, the color and size may vary slightly. Color discrepancies may occur between this product and your computer screen. Imported.
