The nomadic people of the Nepalese region have always used nature’s resources to make their carpets. Above all, sheep’s wool. The wool of the sheep that lives in this geographical area is particularly soft and warm. This is also because it has a high quantity of lanolin. For this reason, Nepalese carpets are among the warmest and softest in the world. Unlike in other regions of Asia, carpet design in Tibet and Nepal has remained extremely simple. The designs are abstract and inconspicuous. The patterns are not very elaborate and coexist alongside carpets made in intense colours. The rich decorations typical of Persian carpets here give way to geometric patterns and monochrome carpets, which are surprising in their simplicity. The fabric of a typical luxury Nepalese carpet is soft and shiny. The muse for the nomadic peoples of Tibet and the refugees from Nepal was above all nature.
