OUR PEOPLE
Tibet Rug Company is a joint venture between Jim Webber of Foothill Oriental Rugs in Salt Lake City, Utah and Tibetan refugees involved in carpet manufacturing in Kathmandu, Nepal. Jim enlists a team of artists to develop designs and colors for rugs to meet current American tastes and he travels to Kathmandu to work in the factory dyeing wool, laying out the designs, and developing prototypes for final consideration.
