Story Behind the Art: Tibetan rug weaving represents a blend of spiritual symbolism and practical craftsmanship that spans centuries. Inspired by Buddhist motifs, sacred animals, geometric mandalas, and natural forms, these rugs served both ritual and domestic functions. Following the Tibetan diaspora of 1959, master weavers reestablished their art in Nepal and India, revitalizing the tradition through collaboration with local artisans. Distinct from other Asian weaves, Tibetan rugs use a unique knotting method, where yarn is looped around a rod and cut to produce dense, velvety piles with profound texture. Traditional motifs like lotuses, dragons, and phoenixes are reinterpreted in modern Nepalese and Indo-Tibetan rugs, balancing heritage with contemporary design. Each rug embodies depth, resilience, and meditative beauty, symbolizing the endurance of Tibetan artistry across generations.
