This is a beautiful Olive, Green, Gold Multi Hand Knotted Lapchi Wool Rug from Nepal. The wool not only adds to rug's durability, but also provides dirt repelling quality and thermal insulation. This rug rejects heavy ornamentation in favor of simplicity and elegance. Its elegant style is easy to decorate with and perfect for living room, dining room, bedroom or anywhere in the residence or office. Story Behind the Art: For centuries Tibetans have used rugs for decorative and functional purposes, drawing upon geometric patterns, auspicious symbols, real and mythical animals, and natural imagery to create beautiful, colorful designs. But it was only after 1959 with the Chinese invasion of Tibet and the growth of Tibetan diaspora in Nepal and Tibet that Tibetan rug weaving underwent a crucial commercial revival.
