Iraqis Weave Handmade Carpets

BAGHDAD, IRAQ - SEPTEMBER 24: Iraqi carpet designers work at the factories of State Company for Handmade Carpets on September 24, 2006 in Baghdad, Iraq. The Iraqi State company for handmade carpets was established in January 1971 in Irbil in northern Iraq and moved to Baghdad in 1998. A carpet made of silk costs 600,000 Iraqi Dinar (about 400 USD) for one cubic meter and 195,000 Iraqi Dinar (approx 130 USD) for one cubic meter made of wool. Factory workers are paid about 200,000 Iraqi Dinar (135 USD) a month. Bombings and sectarian violence have crippled the Iraq industry and has forced many Iraqis to move abroad.
