AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Nepalese carpets are hand-knotted uniques made from high-quality, often hand-spun Tibetan highland wool, admired 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 adhesives, are excellent for underfloor heating.

Details in detail:

Knotting technique: application of the Tibetan knot, around a rod. This often creates loops that are later cut, producing a particularly dense and softly-piled surface.
Material: Usually high-quality, long-fiber Tibetan wool is used, which is very woolly (lanolin) and thus durable as well as dirt-repellent. They are often combined with silk fibers or hemp (very strong).

Design & Color: Usually modern, restrained patterns, abstract designs, or solid-color fields with borders. Popular colors include 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.

Manufacturing: Pure handwork. 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.

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