This antique Tibetan rug dates from circa 1920 and is worked in wool with a three medallion design set upon a rich tomato red field. The composition includes yellow, green, blue, pink, and black detailing, alongside corner key motifs and patterned borders framed by fringe work at either end. The piece measures 170 cm high by 97 cm wide by 1 cm deep and shows light, age-related wear with secure selvedges following professional cleaning. In a modern interior, the runner can be used on wooden floors in a hallway, entryway, or bedroom to add vibrant colour and texture. The compact dimensions make it suitable for narrow spaces or as a wall hanging in a living room, study, or landing.

FAQs

Traditional Tibetan rugs are distinguished by a distinct knotting technique over a cotton matrix, featuring bold geometric or symbolic motifs such as lotus blossoms, medallions, and cloud scrolls set within vivid colour palettes.

Tibetan carpets are hand-knotted using high-altitude wool, prized for its natural lanolin content and resilience, woven over a wool or cotton foundation using a specialized rod-loop knotting method.

Authentic Tibetan rugs display a characteristic ribbed texture on the reverse due to the loop-knot construction, a flexible handle, subtle natural abrash colour variations, and traditional Himalayan geometric iconography.

A Tibetan rug can serve as an anchoring accent in an entryway, placed beneath low-profile minimalist furniture, or layered over neutral woven flooring to introduce texture and structured pattern.

Vacuum gently without a rotating beater bar, clear spills immediately by blotting with a dry cloth, and utilise professional hand-washing services periodically to preserve the integrity of the wool fibres.
