The craft underwent a pivotal transformation after 1959 as the Tibetan diaspora spread across Nepal and India sparking a commercial revival of rug weaving. By the 1970s Tibetan rugs had gained international prominence with Nepalese artisansÑtrained alongside Tibetan refugeesÑbecoming central to sustaining and evolving the tradition.
