Description
Kazaks are a type of Armenian rug that was historically woven in the southern portion of the Caucasus region of the Middle East. The production of rugs in that region is limited to the villages practicing traditional weaving, therefore this beautiful design has been reproduced in Afghanistan. Local elements of design and construction bring a unique beauty to the ancient patterns that the weavers create. The process of making a rug includes cleaning, washing, and dyeing the wool which is sourced from local villages. The majority of the weavers are women, who live in the villages of Afghanistan. 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.
Due to the handmade nature of our rugs, the size may vary from the advertised by 3-4 inches. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come.
