In Pakistan, the art of crafting hand-knotted rugs stands as the second-largest cottage and small-scale industry. Its origins can be traced back to as early as the 11th century, flourishing under the rule of the Mughal Empire. Skilled artisans in Pakistan possess the remarkable ability to produce a wide variety of rugs, incorporating popular design motifs such as guls, medallions, paisleys (botehs), traceries, and geometric patterns, often combining them in imaginative ways. The process sometimes involves the use of "stone washes" to gently fade and soften the colors of the rugs. A distinguishing feature of the Peshawar style within this tradition is its thinly sheared pile, large printed designs, and, most notably, its antique ivory and occasionally golden color tones.
