Description
With its striking mix of asymmetrical patterns, vibrant colors, and traditional motifs, Art Deco rugs are bold, beautiful and rare. Woven in between the times of World War I & II, this magnificent vintage piece of art has a mix of old world style and classic elegance. The period saw a unique experimentation in designs and colors to create masterpieces that are still highly collectable today. This rug was hand-crafted by village weavers in the central region of Iran. The process of making a rug includes cleaning, washing and dyeing the wool which is sourced from local villages.
Herat Oriental works with over 2,000 village weavers to create beautiful, authentic, handmade rugs. The majority of the weavers are women, who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Persia and India. 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 as advertised by 3-4 inches. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come.
