This Arijana Shaal carpet was knotted by hand in Pakistan. It promises a very high quality and thus offers long lasting pleasure. The pattern in stripes is varied and exciting. It was inspired by the well-known Moharamati design. If you find monochrome carpets too boring, you will certainly be delighted with this Arijana Shaal.


Pakistani rug

A large part of Pakistan’s rug production takes place in and around the cities of Lahore and Karachi. Many of the rug weavers from that time fled to Pakistan during the war with India and settled there. Today, hand-knotted Pakistan Bokhara rugs are particularly well known. Similar to Afghan oriental rugs, Pakistani rugs also feature dark colour tones and are usually dominated by shades of red. The well-known elephant’s foot pattern (a repeating octagonal motif) can also be found on a Pakistani rug.

Natural Cotton

As a natural textile fibre obtained from plants, cotton is durable and is often used in rugs. As with clothing, cotton is characterised by a soft feel while also having a strong structure. In hand-knotted rugs, cotton is often used for the warp on the back, or rather for the rug’s foundation.

Hand-knotted

Traditionally hand-knotted rugs still represent the highest quality standard among all types of rug. Depending on the knotting technique, these rugs are extremely hard-wearing and can last for generations. The finer and denser a rug is knotted, the more detailed the ornaments and patterns that can be shown in the pile. At the same time, a very fine oriental rug requires significantly more manual work, as well as a higher level of experience and skill from the weaver. Knot density is therefore also a key factor in the value of hand-knotted rugs. However, quality is not directly linked to knot density. A more coarsely knotted rug can still be made to an excellent standard.

Care & Fair

Following our ethical principles, we at Nain Trading are declared supporters of the organization CARE & FAIR. The goal is joint action by carpet dealers worldwide to give children from carpet weaver families in India and Pakistan the foundation for socially protected growing up. This improves the situation for the whole family in the long term. A child-friendly childhood for a life worth living - that is the mission.
