This traditional Tibetan Tiger Table Mat is hand-made with 100% wool. Inspired by Tibetan rugs and made on the same loom, it features bright colours which is a hallmark of Tibetan rug aesthetics.
Although tigers are not indigenous to Tibet, it was believed that meditating on a tiger rug would improve concentration and offer protection. Tiger rugs gained popularity as a substitute for real tiger skin which Tibetan Buddhist and Indian masters are often depicted sitting on or wearing as a cloak in traditional artworks.
This Tiger Table Mat can be used on altars, coffee tables, office desks, etc as a decorative object.
