Story Behind the Art: Tibetan rug weaving reflects centuries of craftsmanship shaped by symbolic motifs, geometric forms, nature-inspired imagery, and cultural storytelling. After 1959, the relocation of Tibetan weavers into Nepal and northern India sparked a renewed global appreciation for the craft. By the 1970s, Nepali artisans—trained alongside Tibetan masters—helped evolve the art form into what is now recognized worldwide. Tibetan rugs are known for their unique knotting structure, often called the Tibetan knot, which creates thick, lush pile with exceptional softness. Today’s Tibetan, Nepalese, and Indo-Tibetan rugs range from traditional iconography—such as cloud motifs and guardian animals—to contemporary interpretations featuring abstract lines and fluid shapes.
