Maloumian Oriental Rugs is now offering Tibetan rugs in Philadelphia, PA. The making of Tibetan rugs is an ancient craft and art that was initiated by Tibetan people. The rugs were, and often still are, usually made from Tibetan highland sheep’s wool. People in Tibet primarily used these rugs for anything such as hanging them from walls to using them as horse saddles. The process of manufacturing them is unique in that the entire process is usually done primarily by hand. With the advent of technology, some of the process has been taken over by machines because of the cost, time, money, and effort that are put into making these beautiful rugs. However, there are still many who can create them, and maybe just a few additions will be made by a machine.
