Tufenkian creates its handknotted rugs using wool produced in the highest mountains in the world. The emollients lanolin protects the sheep from the elements and the wool in our handknotted carpets from daily wear and tear. Bravely choose a chic cream, winter white or cool ice area rug knowing that using the best products from the start makes a long term difference. Invite in the light with an organic designed rug in undyed wool, silk and linen; a striped designer rug offset by a streak of white; or ikat inspired flowers on a bed of snow.
When you start with the lightest color of thick, plush Tibetan highland wool and leave it in its purest form undyed and use the ancient Tibetan Tsukten weave you are naturally off to a good start of creating a white textured rug.
Our thickest, most plush carpets, the Yak-soo Collection is also our greenest, most natural line in the Tufenkian Collection. The Himalayan Yak is not only adorable, but living in one of the highest elevations on earth, the white wool these durable creatures produce is engineered to keep them warm, and the rugs are gently washed with clear water, using no chemicals at all. The result is a lush, white carpet texture, an eco-friendly gem, rich with natural marbling and one-of-a-kind striations. In neutral undyed fibers, our white textured rugs are perfect for families, bare feet, snuggling, and general coziness.
A modern or traditional style is refreshed in distressed shades of cream to brighter whites. A white textured rug fused with the luxurious finish of our exclusive Tufenkian Bamboo Silk yarn, the styles of the Tufenkian white carpet feature the sumptuous softness of silk and a built-in premium lifetime stain and soil resistance that will never wear or wash off. Divine dustings of shimmering cream softly contrast the velvety hand of our original white carpet texture.
