Story Behind the Art:

 The production of hand-knotted rugs stands as Pakistan's second-largest cottage and small-scale industry, with its roots tracing back to as early as the 11th century during the Mughal reign. Artisans in this industry possess the skill and craftsmanship to create a diverse array of rugs, incorporating popular design elements like guls, medallions, paisleys (botehs), traceries, and geometric patterns in various creative combinations. These rugs are often treated with "stone washes" to gently fade and soften their colors. Notably, the Peshawar style is characterized by its thinly sheared pile, large printed motifs, and, most distinctively, its antique ivory and occasionally golden color tones.
