Herat Oriental Handmade One-of-a-Kind Vegetable Dye Suzani Wool Rug
Description
This rug is a unique piece of world art that will enhance your living space. Suzani comes from the Persian word for 'needle,' which refers to beautiful embroidered hangings, rugs or fabric coverings. This Suzani rug is a reproduction of the original embroidered pieces but redesigned into a pile rug, versus the original flat weave you would expect from a typical Suzani piece. The knot count per square inch for this rug is 180. The rug is 100 percent wool with vegetable dyes. The pile height is 0. 25 inches. This rug has a geometric pattern in shades of blue, ivory, red, peach, light blue, and red.

Due to the handmade nature of our rugs, the size may vary from as advertised by 3-4 inches. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come. Herat Oriental has been providing beautiful, authentic, handmade rugs for over 10 years. We have been given the opportunity to create jobs for over 2,000 local village weavers, which helps them to greatly support their families. 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.
