We don’t usually like to toot our own horn but we are proud of our historical and cultural significance here in Eugene. Many public figures have come to us for beautiful rugs.

Last year, we provided the Dalai Lama with a rug for his speech at the University of Oregon. The rug he sat on was purchased from us by a local Buddhist temple. Here’s a behind the scenes photo of the rug before His Holiness spoke.
