Traditional Rugs
Handmade traditional rugs feature curvilinear floral and geometric designs dating back over a thousand years. These versatile pieces blend with mid-century, antique, and modern interiors, offering timeless appeal. Each rug uses hand-spun wool and natural dyes for durability and unique color variations.
Tibetan Rugs
Authentic Tibetan rugs showcase both traditional and modern designs, including village life scenes created by individual weavers. These rugs use hand-spun wool and natural dyes, combining cultural heritage with contemporary aesthetics through geometric patterns and distinctive textures.
Tribal Kilims
Tribal kilims emphasize mathematical precision with bold geometric patterns. These flat-woven rugs create casual atmospheres suitable for offices, studies, and family rooms while maintaining cultural authenticity through handcrafted techniques and natural fibers.
Modern Rugs
Modern rug designs incorporate innovative interpretations from various textile traditions. Most modern pieces originate from Tibetan weavers who reinterpret classical motifs using hand-spinning methods, creating unique focal points for contemporary interiors with hand-dyed wool.
