Traditional Tibetan Rugs - artelino

I found this article, titled 'A Magic Carpet Ride Purchasing a handmade Tibetan rug--without getting rolled' by CNN Money.com in the Internet. The focus of this article was certainly not on traditional Tibetan rugs, but on contemporary ones. But the tips are general and useful. See Purchasing a handmade Tibetan rug. - Dieter Wanczura

artelino ships your orders for free within Germany. And with our 20 days return policy you do not run the slightest risk. Take a look at our shopping catalog of traditional Tibetan rugs, thangkas and gold-plated Nepal metal statues.

Today we have started to create a German version of this web site - recognizable by the German flag on top right of the header section. But when you click on it you see the same site in English!? Well, this translation work will take presumably a few weeks. Don't be surprised about the mixture of German and English that you will see in the days ahead when you click on the German flag. If you have any questions, just contact me. I speak German better than English, and even master the Bavarian accent.  ;-)  Dieter Wanczura

This web site was opened in April of 2010 to sell traditional Tibetan rugs and other Himalayan arts and crafts products.

The artelino GmbH was founded in 2001 as a small family business - located in Icking, Germany. Since 2001 we have sold and shipped worldwide more than 30,000 Japanese and Chinese art prints.

My passion for the people and cultures of Nepal and Tibet goes back to the late 1970s when I arrived for the first time in Nepal. This web site is both a business and a personal mission to establish the sales of these beautiful traditional Tibetan rugs as a win-win project, bringing a great product to the homes of European, American, Australian and Asian buyers, providing people in Nepal with an income and helping to preserve an old tradition and craft.

Please feel encouraged to contact me.
