This hand knotted carpet is inspired by The Blue Marble- the hues from the image of Earth on December 7, 1972, taken from a distance of about 29,000 kilometers (18,000 miles) from` the planet's surface. It was taken by the crew of the Apollo 17 spacecraft on its way to the Moon, and is one of the most reproduced images in history.
About Hand-knotted Tibetan Carpets
Hand-knotted Tibetan carpets offer the rare blend of traditionally and modernity with their ancient weaving styles, classical hand-knotting and contemporary designs. They make for penthouse-chic rugs with interesting geometric patterns and retro imagery masterfully accented with hues of neutral earth tones, hand crafted using a combination of wool and silk.
These rugs are made using an overlapped interlink buckle or an interlink knot technique. The result is is a lustrous and velvet like surface, which makes these carpets look and feel luxurious.
