Mexican Zapotec Wool Area Rug (1.5x7), "Oaxaca Homeland"
Oaxaca's warm sun illuminates mountain meadows washed by summer rain. Eliciting intricate motifs from virgin wool, Alberto Ruiz García and his wife craft this beautiful Zapotec rug on the handloom. They name the design "Mi tierra oaxaqueña" in Spanish.
Because each rug is individually woven, measurements could vary +/- 1 inch (3 cm).
