Description

Wool from the Tibetan highlands, fine Chinese silk and nettle yarn all possess exceptional qualities which consequently characterize the products. In Nepal, our certified partner workshops have often been in the hands of the same family for generations. There, carpets are hand-crafted using traditional Tibetan knotting methods under sustainable and socially responsible conditions. Due to the heterogeneous nature of fibers and threads, to their diverse colours and hues, and to the personal interpretation of craftsmen, every rug ends up being a unique masterpiece. These objects are living proof that true values are wisely handed down from generation to generation.

An African proverb states: “No witness is better than your own eyes.” The low-pile carpet Ajabu - Swahili for wonder - shines in pink like the magical Retba salt lake in Senegal, and is made from Tibetan highland wool, fine Chinese silk and nettle fibers in equal proportions.

Low-pile carpet made from 33% wool, 34% silk and 33% nettle.
