Made of the finest quality Himalayan wool, our hand-knotted rugs are made by Tibetans in the Kathmandu Valley of Nepal. The wool is rich in lanolin oil, which is important both for the absorbtion of the dyes as well as the plush texture for which Tibetan rugs are famous worldwide. Our manufacturers hand spin their wool and use traditional vegetable dyes or eco-friendly Swiss Ciba colors.
In addition to Shimmo shown above, we also have new Barberry Alto Steps along with matching runners and landings. Barberry is part of our Black Sheep Collection using only natural sheep tones of black and white. They are hand knotted in Nepal at 100 knots per inch. Although Barberry is not a new design, we have never offered it in Tibetan quality rugs and steps until now.
