Woven Jewels was established in 2003 by the husband and wife team of Pam and Neil Davidson. After a number of trips to Nepal it became clear that selling Nepali rugs was one way to help the economy of that poor and underdeveloped nation. While doing market research it also become obvious that many Americans were not aware of the quality and variety of Nepali rugs. Pam and Neil decided to found Woven Jewels as an Internet business in order to bring these wonderful Nepali rugs to as many people as possible. The designs have a distinctivly modern and contemporary look, a very custom and handcrafted area rug look. A combination of bold designs with vivid, yet often subtle color combinations, creates a multitude of possibilities. Add in the variations created by knot count, pile length and the special nature of how wool reflects light and you have a rich colorful area rug to add drama to any enviroment. Each rug is an individual work-of-art that will add design, color and texture to your home or office. The making of hand-knotted rugs is a labor-intensive activity with a long history and Nepal has an abundance of craftsmen and women who are highly skilled in this traditional art. Woven Jewels regularly brings in new designs. Once these rugs are photographed their pictures will be added to the Collection web pages. You can keep track of recent updates by observing the “last updated” date on the front page. www.wovenjewels.com
