Carpet Making in Afghanistan

Carpet weaving is at the heart of Afghanistan’s heritage. Fine, long-fibre Ghazni wool, natural vegetable and mineral dyes, skilled hands, and a variety of regional weaving techniques lend a unique character to Afghan-made rugs. Four decades of conflict, however, have left the country virtually inaccessible to international buyers. Afghan producers have worked in isolation, cut off from developments in production standards. Turquoise Mountain is working to break this isolation and connect Afghan weavers with buyers globally.
