 Tibetan Carpets;From a Cultural Crossroads
TIBETAN CARPETS: FROM A CULTURAL CROSSROAD by Tom Cole Originally appeared in Vol 13, #3 An early article that I wrote many years ago, with some interesting ideas, some of which have formed the basis for the subsequent research and text prepared for The singular nature of the both dragon throne back rugs endures over the test of time; I have not seen analogous examples in the interim. Nor have I seen another rug like the Plate 1, a finely woven carpet with exceptional dyes, of the same group as... - http://www.tcoletribalrugs.com/article57TibetORRCrossroads.html 17/12/2006 - Category: Tibetan - More from this publisher

Potala Palace - Lhasa, Tibet Marketplace - Lhasa, Tibet Weaver - Kathmandu, Nepal Due to political change in Tibet from 1959 through the early 60's, thousands of Tibetans settled in the Kathmandu Valley after having made the long trek through the Himalayan Mountains. For centuries, Tibetans have been weaving and using carpets as bedding, saddle blankets and meditation mats in monasteries. As a means to making a living in a new land, these hardy Tibetan refugees received the support of the Swiss... - http://www.endlessknotrugs.com/tibetan_rug_history.html 28/01/2005 - Category: Tibetan - More from this publisher

 In the Plateau Style
In The Plateau Style Originally appeared in 131, © 2003 . Mirror images, the central devices in a Tibetan rug and Mongolian felt Few old Tibetan rugs that verifiably pre-date the late 19th century have survived the intensive use to which they were subjected, and the history of Tibetan rug weaving has been obscured by a dearth of documentation and observation. However, despite its apparent isolation, art from the Tibetan Plateau has, over many centuries, synthesised ideas and images derived... - http://www.tcoletribalrugs.com/article25LionRug.html 12/12/2004 - Category: Tibetan - More from this publisher

Rug Resource Library - Countries of Origin - Tibet
Tibetan Rugs Tibetan Rugs are made in the Kingdom of Nepal. Originally they were made with Chinese influence or related to Buddhism. I recall back in the early 1990's when Tibetan rugs started being produced in non-traditional Tibetan designs and colors for the American market. They started using modern and decorative designs and colors that were an instant hit with American designers and customers. Today, Tibetan rugs are selling very well. The rugs are made in 60-100 knot qualities using fine... - http://www.orientalrugsonline.com/tibet.html 21/09/2004 - Category: Tibetan - More from this publisher

 TIBETAN CARPETS: FROM A CULTURAL CROSSROADS
TIBETAN CARPETS: FROM A CULTURAL CROSSROAD by Thomas Cole The subject of tribal origins of Tibetan rugs has been discussed previously in this journal, perhaps to the point of belaboring this non-issue, but, due to the general unfamiliarity with the art form, I felt it has been necessary to discuss the question at length. However, the existence of tribal rugs in Tibet, and the probability of nomadic production, does not preclude (nor dismiss) the existence of a sophisticated production from a se... - http://www.rugreview.com/13-3cole.htm 14/09/2004 - Category: Tibetan - More from this publisher

Tibetan Rugs at Fort Mason
Tibetan Rugs at Fort Mason by Nicholas H. Wright. Tucked away in a back aisle of the massive exhibition of Oriental Rugs from Pacific Collections at the Fort Mason Center during last November's I.C.O.C. were 25 Tibetan rugs. Fourteen were selected from the collection of Thomas A. and Gwen Rutherford. Because Tibet was a closed country for so long and did not export many rugs, it is only in the past few years that we have recognized an old weaving tradition and the many uses Tibetans found for r... - http://www.rugreview.com/orr/113tib.htm 14/09/2004 - Category: Tibetan - More from this publisher

 Tibetan Rugs at Adraskand
Tibetan Rugs at Adraskand Exhibition Review by Murray Eiland This article originally appeared in , Vol. 11, #6 Over the years, I have reviewed a number of special exhibits at Adraskand, the Marin County gallery operated by Anne Halley and Michael Craycraft. From an early focus on Turkoman pieces, the emphasis later became directed more toward Baluch and Afshar rugs, with periodic world-class exhibitions in these specialized areas. The shows have been more than just visual treats, however, as th... - http://www.tcoletribalrugs.com/article16tibreview.html 14/09/2004 - Category: Tibetan - More from this publisher

 Butterfly Saddle Rugs
ORIENTAL RUGS DICTIONARY Butterfly Saddle Rugs Tibetan or Chinese saddle rugs woven in trapezoidal shape. The corners of the shorter parallel edge may be rounded. The overall shape suggests a butterfly with spread wings. Please note that these items were woven in two different sections and joined after the completion of the weaving. This practice assured that the pile is facing down on both sections, for convenience of the rider and durability. - http://www.metropolitancarpet.com/html/body_butterfly_saddle_rugs.html 14/09/2004 - Category: Tibetan - More from this publisher

 Tibetan Rugs-A Tribal Tradition
Tibetan Rugs - A Tribal Tradition Originally published 49, © 1990 Tibetan rugs occupy a lowly place in the hierarchy of oriental carpets. All too often Tibetophiles have exhibited late, synthetic dyed, truly forgettable weavings, bypassing the critical aesthetic standards by which all artifacts should be judged. But there are Tibetan rugs of undoubted age and beauty. Now, as a more representative sampling of antique tribal weavings begins to reach the Western market, a dealer and collector... - http://www.tcoletribalrugs.com/article6.html 14/09/2004 - Category: Tibetan - More from this publisher
