Felted Rug - Antique handwoven in Bulgaria, Natural Wool Colors - Plant Dye - R13

Felted Rug, a heritage tradition, woven in Bulgaria. Thick and soft on your feet. The color of the wool reflects the age of the sheep. Young Karakachan sheep are brown and their wool lightens to off white as the grow older.

In older rugs they are hung outside to air out and bleach in the sun which lightens the color even more to an almost white wool. Natural Plant Dyes where color is used. We sell both old and newly woven rugs. Collected in villages from the Rodope Mountains.
