Tibetan rug making is an ancient, traditional craft. Tibetan rugs are traditionally made from Tibetan highland sheep's wool, called changpel.
The knotting method used in Tibetan rug making is different from that used in other rug making traditions worldwide.
At the end sometimes they cut some reliefs into the pile which is made from wool or wool and silk.
Designs are inspired by old Buddhistic symbols like the Lotus flower, the wheel of life or the endless knot.
