Story Behind the Art :For centuries, Tibetans have woven rugs for both functional and decorative purposes, drawing inspiration from geometric motifs, auspicious symbols, mythical creatures, and natural imagery to create designs rich in color and meaning. 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 artisans trained alongside Tibetan refugees becoming central to sustaining and evolving the tradition. Distinctive for their unique slit-loop technique known as the Tibetan knot, these rugs possess a pile of remarkable depth, texture, and softness. Today, Tibetan, Nepalese, and Indo-Tibetan rugs range from reimagined traditional motifs, such as branching florals and snow lions, to modern, free-form patterns that bridge heritage with contemporary design.
