Tibetan refugees living in northern India perform every step in the process, using traditional methods:
  • Raising Tibetan sheep and sheering them for wool.
     
  • Transport of the wool to the Tibetan Refugee Self-Help Centre.
     
  • Spinning the wool into yarn.
     
  • Dyeing the yarn with natural vegetable dyes (and chemical dyes when requested).
     
  • Hand-weaving the rugs.
     
  • Packing for export.
     
  • These are the only Tibetan rugs that are made 100% by Tibetan refugees at every step!
Your purchases preserve a culture and provide income and dignity through work in traditional crafts.
 
The majority of the revenues go to the Tibetan Self-Help Refugee Centre in India.

Paying a Fair Price, and Profit-Sharing, to Preserve Traditional Craft Skills, and Support Tibetan Refugees and their Families:
Traditional craft skills are slowly disappearing, and Tibetan refugees are simply melting into another society.

Why?

Inability to get their excellent handmade products to world markets!
Nomad Trading Company--through its Himalayan Traditions product line--is dedicated to solving this problem through our joint venture with the Tibetan Refugee Self-Help Centre.

 

 
Tibetans have been risking their lives to walk across the Himalayan range to freedom for decades.

The Tibetan Refugee Self-Help Centre helps them to start a new life in a foreign land:
-Housing
-Education
-Health Services
-Food
-Jobs
