Story Behind the Art:

• This rug was re-created by village weavers in the Bhadohi region of India and has its origins in Heriz, a city located in northwestern Iran near the city of Tabriz. The majority of the weavers are women from Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India, who live in villages where they do the entire process of shearing, washing, dyeing, and weaving of the rugs. Rug weaving provides job opportunities for these women and benefits local farmers who raise sheep for wool. The artisans also create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs, contributing to the local community's economy. As these rugs are handmade, there may be variations in size, color, and design.
