They represent a unique blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern design. Kathmandu carpets are primarily made in Nepal, especially in and around the Kathmandu Valley. Nepal has a long tradition of carpet weaving that has evolved and refined over centuries. These carpets are hand-knotted and made using traditional techniques involving multiple steps, from spinning the wool to dyeing and knotting the carpet. The carpets are often woven by skilled artisans who follow traditional methods but also adapt to modern design trends. Kathmandu carpets are characterized by a mix of traditional Nepalese patterns and modern design motifs. They may include geometric shapes, stylized flowers, and other nature-inspired elements. The modern patterns are often minimalist and abstract, making them suitable for both traditional and contemporary interiors. The colors in Kathmandu carpets vary, but they tend to use earthy and natural shades like beige, gray, brown, and green. Brighter colors such as red, blue, and yellow may also appear depending on the design. Natural dyes are often used to color the wool, giving the carpets their deep and authentic colors. Kathmandu carpets are primarily made from high-quality Tibetan wool, known for its strength, durability, and softness. This wool is particularly suited for carpet weaving due to its long fibers and natural luster. Kathmandu carpets have a varying knot density depending on the design and quality. The high-quality carpets have a high knot density, which allows for detailed patterns and contributes to the durability of the carpet.
