Through our factory,
tkc is in exclusive contract with the Tibetan Settlement Government in Exile of His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Our rugs are woven with the utmost care and attention to detail at the oldest Tibetan settlement camp in Katmandu, Nepal. Any revenue which does not remain in the settlement camp to support the immediate needs of the population is channeled directly to the Tibetan Settlement Government in Exile to promote the Dalai Lama’s agenda of world peace. We are a globally-conscious company, and our goal is to provide the public with a world-class product at a fair trade price.

  • 100, 120 and 150 knot rugs are woven from 100% Tibetan Highland Sheep wool. They may also, if specified, include a portion of the design woven in silk or be woven in 100% silk.

  • 80 knot rugs are a 50/50 blend of Tibetan and New Zealand wool.

  • Dyes are of either natural vegetable or the best quality, environmentally friendly Swiss dyes to provide a broad palette of over 175 colors.

  • Sizes are mostly standard with a slight variation in the length of some designs to preserve their artistic integrity. Custom sizes are available at no additional charge, but are limited in some design aspects.

  • Custom coloring is available. Charges will vary according to the details of the specific project.
