Story Behind the Art: The art of hand-knotting in Pakistan flourished under Mughal rule in the 11th century, blending Persian aesthetics with South Asian artistry. Among its most distinguished creations are Peshawar rugs, known for their thinly sheared piles, intricate patterns, and luminous finishes. Artisans employ traditional stone washing to mellow the dyes, producing rugs with soft, antique-inspired hues of ivory, beige, and gold. Designs often feature large-scale floral and geometric motifs, exuding a sense of openness and balance. Each Peshawar rug is woven from fine wool on a strong cotton base, ensuring both flexibility and longevity. Today, these rugs remain prized worldwide for their understated elegance, vintage appeal, and craftsmanship, symbolizing the fusion of history, artistry, and enduring utility in Pakistani weaving traditions.
