Story Behind the Art:

• The design of this rug originates from the Iranian city of Mahal but was re-created in the Varanasi region of India, in the Bhadohi village. The majority of the weavers are women who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. By purchasing this rug, you're not only bringing a unique piece of world art to your home but also supporting female weavers and local farmers who benefit from wool sales. Natural vegetable dyes are used to give the rugs their rich colors, and regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come.
