Not all materials are created equal. In Tibetan weaving, look for all Tibetan wool - by far the best quality wool, not to be confused with less expensive, shorter staple New Zealand wool. Chinese silk is also considered more desirable than Indian silk. Finer quality material leads to a finer quality rug.

“WE LOVE OUR RUGS. They make such a difference now that we have taken away the old ones that they made room for ... little moments of joy ... a la JDKurtz ! And now we have our tangent out as well and our 2nd floor is starting to look serene , at least at floor level.” Retail Client – Philadelphia, PA
