Story Behind the Art : For centuries, Tibetans have woven rugs for daily life and ceremonial use, filling them with auspicious symbols, geometric rhythms, mythic creatures, and nature-inspired forms. After 1959, the Tibetan diaspora seeded a new era of weaving across Nepal and India; by the 1970s, Tibetan rugs had gained international acclaim, with Nepalese artisans training alongside Tibetan refugees to sustain—and evolve—the tradition. The signature Tibetan knot (a slit-loop technique) yields a pile of remarkable loft, texture, and softness. Today, Tibetan, Nepalese, and Indo-Tibetan rugs range from refreshed classics—branching florals, snow lions—to free-form, contemporary abstractions, bridging ancestral heritage with modern design sensibilities.
