Carpets - for sale
History: For centuries, Tibetans have been weaving and using
carpets as bedding, saddle blankets and meditation mats. Since the
occupation of Tibet by China, the Tibetan refugees in Nepal started
making a living by weaving carpets and selling to the tourists. This
carpet weaving cottage industry became one of the biggest foreign
exchange earners, employing hundred of thousand of Nepalis.
Designs: The sketches of all designs in the website are available.
Most designs are created by our own creative, innovative and hard
working team.
Custom Designs: We take great pride in our ability to affect
creative and appropriate solutions in design and texture, to your
special design needs. We do original concept designing from your submitted
fabrics, paper, or sketches. Rendered sketches are mailed for confirmation.
Strikeoffs of approved design are produced to meet the requirements
of the customer before actual production.
Materials: Our primary fiber is wool. We utilize high altitude
Tibetan wool and also New Zealand wool. The warp of the carpets is
cotton. The other fibers we use are silk, raw silk, and hemp.
Textures: The standard pile texture is plain cut file. The
other textures in which we specialize are loop and cut, high and low
and emboss.
Color: We custom dye to your color standards. The dye stuff
we uses are from Sandoz, and Ceba. A matched pom is submitted for
approval.
Washing: All carpets are washed manually and in an eco-friendly
way.
Project: Making carpets with natural color yarns. Where no
dyes stuff used- organic and totally eco-friendly.
