Alicia D. Keshishian - Carpets of Imagination

An art director, designer and illustrator for more than 25 years, Alicia D. Keshishian has always loved color and texture.

With the belief that rugs are an ideal medium for creating a living piece of art, Keshishian custom designs each piece so that it reflects her clients sense of style and beauty. The process is collaborative, with Keshishian working directly with clients and their designers to create distinctive, personal carpets.

All of her rugs are hand-made in Nepal with the finest Tibetan wool. The weavers use centuries-old techniques, first carding the raw fibers before spinning and dyeing them. Using three-ply wool and a traditional Tibetan knot, the weavers create the rug knot by knot, the design revealing itself row by row. The result is an original and resilient carpet of extraordinary quality.

RUGMARK
Alicia D. Keshishian has been participating in RUGMARK from the onset of her business. RUGMARK is an international, non-profit organization committed to ending illegal child labor, and supports the education of children within the weaving community. Keshishian is grateful to the weavers for bringing her designs to life. They are very much a part of the creative process, applying their skills and expertise to each rug. A percentage of every dollar spent producing each carpet goes to the continued support of RUGMARK, enabling Keshishian to better support the well-being of Nepals rug-producing families.
