Tiger Rug Company

About

Tiger Rug Co. is a purveyor of Tibetan oriental carpets in Rhode Island. We have been importing oriental carpets from Nepal to our warehouse since the summer of 2000. The wool used in our production of these carpets is derived from sheep that graze in the Himalayan mountain range of Tibet at altitudes of 12,000 feet and higher. Due to this high altitude and extreme cold temperatures, the wool produced has unusually high lanolin content. It is the lanolin content that gives the wool a natural stain resistance and a very soft feel to the touch. This wool is considered the finest wool in the world for the weaving of carpets. Tiger Rug Co. uses pure Tibetan Himalayan wool in our carpet making process. We do not blend our wool - ever.
