Proffering exquisite hand-knotted rugs as well as hope for women in Afghanistan, the not-for-profit organization lives up to its name.

Each rug is crafted on a loom in its weaver’s home or one of Arzu’s Women’s Community Centers in Afghanistan. Yarns are hand-spun from 100% sheep’s wool, and vibrant colors are achieved through the use of natural dye when possible. Depending on size, a rug might be on the loom between five and eight months. When complete, the weaver’s labor of love becomes a beloved heirloom for its owner.

Arzu’s traditional and tribal designs are stunning, many inspired by authentic antique patterns. The Hope rug is a modern reproduction of the Pazyryk rug, the oldest surviving piled rug. Transitional and modern rugs are also offered in a variety of designs and colors. While they offer an expansive range of in-stock pieces, Arzu also offers fully customizable options that allow clients to create their own design, color, shape, and size.

Equally attentive to their products and the quality of their weavers’ lives, Arzu Studio Hope prioritizes empowerment. That sentiment echoes across the organization, manifesting in the tiniest of details. A subtle “H” is woven in the corner of each rug made by Arzu as a symbolic bestowal of hope. Collections are given empowering, life-affirming names such as Confidence, Determination, Respect, Trust, and Unity. The organization is dedicated to promoting fair labor standards and offering opportunity to women where little opportunity exists. Net proceeds directly benefit families in the form of fair wages and social benefits. In addition to creating the Women’s Community Centers for their weavers, Arzu Studio Hope facilitates literacy and home ownership and provides access to clean water and health care.

Dallas Rugs is proud to offer rugs from Arzu Studio Hope.

The Ephesus Collection

[cs_content][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 10px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text]Situated on the western Turkish coast lies the port city of Selçuk, site of the ancient city of Ephesus. Established in the 10th century BCE, Ephesus boasts a diverse history colored by contributions from Classical Greece, the Roman Empire, mythology, and religion. Goth raids and earthquakes damaged the once-bustling center of commerce under Greco-Roman rule, and Ephesus is now home to the beloved relics, ruins, and remnants of traditions celebrated by various cultures over the past 12,000 years.

Ephesus’ rich history has inspired a collection of exceptional silk hand-knotted rugs, interweaving antiquity and intricate beauty in an artful take on the city and its culture. The collection includes six pieces crafted by artisans and steeped in tradition. Each rug has been meticulously designed to reflect historical Ephesian landmarks, effectively passing ancient customs down to future generations through keepsake tapestries.
