More about this bundle:

Handwoven using a dense flat-weave technique, this 100% wool Kilim reflects a long-standing Turkmen weaving tradition. The artisans embrace a "no-waste" approach, incorporating yarn remnants from other projects to create richly colored and uniquely patterned textiles. Rug weaving and farming are often the only income-generating opportunities available to rural women in these communities, making each piece both a work of art and a source of economic empowerment.

Featuring shades of turquoise, teal, red, pumpkin, cream, grey, lime, and green, this versatile rug is equally stunning displayed on a wall or used on a floor. Measuring 23" x 41" with fringe on both ends and valued at $179, it is a vibrant celebration of craftsmanship, sustainability, and cultural heritage.
