History
Tufenkian created the modern Tibetan carpet business in North America 25 years ago and continues to set the standards to which others aspire. We have relentlessly raised the bar on quality and responsibility as we advance towards our goal of creating products of total integrity. Our mission is to make beautiful things of lasting value, and to use the profits from selling them to improve the lives of our workers and the places where they work. Our social programs implemented in weaving areas set the industry targets for social responsibility, and our products represent ultimate sustainability because they last for lifetimes. Crafted from all natural, renewable materials, generations from now when their service is completed they will be entirely bio-degradable. Made with the finest natural materials and handcraftsmanship, destined to last a lifetime and become more beautiful with age, our modern designs are timeless.
