Story Behind the Art :For centuries, Tibetans have woven rugs not only for warmth and function but also as a form of artistic expression. Drawing inspiration from geometric motifs, auspicious symbols, mythical creatures, and natural imagery, these rugs are celebrated for their profound symbolism and vibrant color stories. After 1959, the Tibetan diaspora revitalized this craft in Nepal and India, giving rise to a thriving rug-weaving tradition that fused ancient methods with global influences. By the 1970s, Tibetan and Indo-Tibetan rugs had earned international acclaim, known for their signature Tibetan knot — a slit-loop technique that gives each rug exceptional texture and softness. Today’s Tibetan rugs range from classic snow-lion and lotus motifs to modern contemporary abstract patterns, representing a perfect harmony of heritage, craftsmanship, and design innovation.
