Hand-Knotted Carpets
Our hand-knotted carpets use 100% Himalayan wool from high-altitude sheep, providing natural stain resistance and softness. Master weavers employ traditional Tibetan knotting techniques, creating durable, heirloom-quality rugs. Each piece undergoes rigorous quality checks during and after weaving for perfect alignment and finish.

We offer full customization of size, shape, and color for all rug designs. Clients receive computer-generated renderings and actual yarn samples before production begins. Our process ensures perfect color matching and design adaptation while maintaining the integrity of original patterns.
