Bring the majestic altitude of the Himalayas into your home with this magnificent Hand-Knotted Cream Cloud Wool Rug. - Handcrafted by artisans in Tibet
- Tibetans have been weaving rugs for centuries, but these treasures have been only scarcely available to American consumers
- The cloud is an important symbol of the Tibetan people. Known as the 'rooftop of the world,' the Tibetan plateau is mostly at an elevation of 12,000 feet or above
- Clouds figure prominently in Tibetan folklore and mythology. It is believed that Padmasambhava, who took Buddhism to Tibet in the eighth century, came from the direction of Mount Kailash in the form of a white cloud
- The beautifully orchestrated off white background, combined with an orange, ocean blue, navy blue, pink, gold, maroon, and sky blue color scheme really ties a room together
- Stitched entirely of wool from goats of the Tibetan Plateau, whose coats are considered amongst the finest the world
- This rug is wonderfully soft to the touch, and it's luster will only be enhanced with the passage of time
- Measures 5 feet long x 2 feet 6 inches wide
