Story Behind the Art:In 1959, Chinese invasion forced Tibetans to migrate by the thousands through the Himalayan mountains in search of a new home. Many settled in the Kathmandu Valley where they received the support of the Swiss government to initiate a cottage industry of carpet weaving based on centuries-old tradition and technique. Initially, small rugs were produced for the growing tourist population in Nepal. The purchase of this beautiful rug helps support these local artisans and gives them a sustainable income that they otherwise wouldn't have.
