This rug is a unique piece of world art that will enhance your living space. This Moroccan rug has its very own unique weaving design and style. These rug designs originated in the Atlas mountains of Morocco and are made of 100% hand-spun wool. The pile height of this rug is 0.5 inches with a knot count of 100 KPSI. The pattern and weave of this rug represent a Moroccan Berber, however this particular rug design was re-created and woven by weavers in Varanasi, India. The majority of the weavers are women, who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India. As we grow, we can 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.
