Story Behind the Art: The art of hand knotted rug weaving in Pakistan dates back to the 11th century, flourishing under the patronage of the Mughal Empire. Over time, it evolved into one of the country’s most significant traditional crafts—now recognized as its second-largest cottage and small-scale industry. Pakistani artisans are celebrated for their mastery in design and versatility, skillfully blending classic motifs such as guls, medallions, paisleys (botehs), traceries, and geometric patterns into exquisite, balanced compositions. Among the most admired regional styles is the Peshawar rug, known for its thinly sheared pile, large-scale motifs, and signature antique ivory or golden hues that exude quiet elegance. These rugs often undergo a stone-washing process that softens tones and lends them a naturally aged patina, enhancing their vintage appeal. Combining durability, beauty, and subtle sophistication, Peshawar rugs remain a timeless reflection of Pakistan’s rich weaving heritage and enduring artistic tradition.
