Story Behind the Art: For generations, Tibetan weavers have created rugs that serve as both practical furnishings and expressions of cultural artistry. Inspired by sacred symbols, geometric forms, mythical creatures, and elements of nature, these rugs are known for their vivid colors and deep symbolic meaning. After 1959, as Tibetan communities resettled in Nepal and India, the tradition experienced a powerful revival, giving rise to a new era of rug weaving. By the 1970s, Tibetan rugs had achieved worldwide recognition, with Nepalese artisans working closely with Tibetan refugees to preserve and evolve this ancient craft. Renowned for their distinctive slit-loop technique, known as the Tibetan knot, these rugs feature an exceptionally soft, dense pile and luxurious texture. Today, Tibetan, Nepalese, and Indo-Tibetan rugs continue this legacy, combining reinterpreted traditional motifs—like florals and snow lions—with modern, abstract patterns that harmoniously blend heritage craftsmanship with contemporary design.
