Description

A special thank you to Dharmashop for donating this item. The moment our auction coordinator saw this carpet she was intent on having it for the auction and Sander Cohen, Dharmashop owner, was kind enough to oblige.


This whimsical tiger cut-out carpet is made from 100% Tibetan wool. Traditionally used to cover luggage on a long journey it also makes a good meditation mat, wall hanging or distinctive throw carpet. 


In addition to supplying Tibetan Buddhist ritual items Dharmashop is also "excited about helping to support Tibetan artisans living in exile". And because it is important to Dharmashop that Tibetan and Nepali people share in it's success it donates a percentage of profits to Tibetan charities. In 2003 it started the Dharmashop.com school program to build schools in rural Nepal and in 2006 joined The Tibetan Nun's Project to support ordained women living in exile.


Dimensions: 2' x 3' (approx.)
