A Traditional Steeped in History
Felting is not just an industry in Nepal: it’s a cherished traditional. For generations, the people of the Himalayan region have crafted Radi(Carpets) and Pakhi(Blankets) using wool felt to combat the harsh cold of the region. This tradition extends beyond practicality: it carries deep significance and purity. Wool felt is even used in funerals, symbolizing its sanctity.
