As a handmade product, the size may vary from as advertised by 3-4 inches, adding to its unique character. The majority of the weavers are women who live in villages across Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India, which helps create jobs for female weavers who may not have the opportunity otherwise. The community also benefits from rug weaving as local farmers can sell wool and local artisans can create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. With regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning, this kilim will remain a beautiful addition to your home for years to come. Note: Due to the handmade nature of this product, slight variations in color, size, and design should be expected. Color discrepancies may also occur between the product and your computer screen.
