AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

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

Details in detail:

Knotting technique: The Tibetan knot is applied, wrapping around a rod. Often loops are formed that are later cut open, creating a particularly dense and soft pile.
Material: Usually high-quality, long-fiber Tibetan wool is used, which is very grease-rich (lanolin) and thus durable as well as dirt-repellent. They are often combined with silk content or hemp (very strong).

Design & color: Mostly modern, minimal 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 carpet elastic, durable and ideal for underfloor heating.

Manufacturing: Pure handcraft. Typical are slight irregularities that make each piece unique.

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

TEPGO

Condition: The carpet is in very good condition, full pile, the sides and fringes are in original condition,
