AMADI
As refugees from The Soviet War who fled on foot out of Afghanistan, the Ahmadi family and their hard-earned success epitomize the American Dream. For three generations, the Ahmadis have been weaving, designing, and selling hand-made rugs to customers throughout the world. Then, in 2003, Amadi returned to Afghanistan to open its first weaving workshop in Kabul. The employees? Twenty women from the local area. The cultural hurdles to make this happen were monumental.
“You help empower one woman, and you have empowered a whole family. You empower more than one woman, and you have empowered a whole community,” explains Zubair Ahmadi, one of the company founders.
This Adobe geometric wool rug is a work of art dyed and woven by hand.
