AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Nepal carpets are hand-knotted unique pieces made from high-quality, often hand-spun Tibetan highland virgin wool, notable for their density, durability, and the use of traditional Tibetan knotting techniques. They are known for simple, modern designs with soft color gradients and, thanks to natural materials and the absence of glue, are excellent for underfloor heating.

Details in detail:

Knitting technique: Application of the Tibetan knot, wrapped around a rod. Often loops are formed that are later cut open, producing a particularly dense and soft pile.

Material: Typically high-quality, long-staple Tibetan virgin wool is used, which is very lanolin-rich and thus durable and dirt-repellent. They are often combined with silk components or hemp (very strong).

Design & Color: Usually modern, reduced patterns, abstract designs, or solid-color fields with borders. Popular colors are earth tones, beige, gray, blue, green or terracotta.

Structure: The back is not glued, which makes the rug elastic, durable, and ideal for underfloor heating.

Manufacture: Pure handcraft. Subtle irregularities are typical, making each piece a one-of-a-kind.

Nepalese carpets are regarded as very easy to care for, durable (often several decades) and value-retentive.

TEPGO

Condition: The rug is in very good condition, full pile, the edges and fringe are in original condition, not washed,
