This hand-knotted carpet from Pakistan has very typical features. The round ornaments repeat themselves on the floor and make up the kind of carpet. 2Ply and 3Ply are differences in the knotting density of carpets. A 3Ply is generally tighter knotted and therefore more complex to produce and somewhat more robust. These beautiful carpets are popular because of their warm colours and their calming design.

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 sheep wool

Wool is a natural material with important benefits for everyday use. It is extremely hard-wearing and easily withstands daily wear and tear. With the right care, it can also last for many decades without showing signs of ageing. Natural wool is also dirt-repellent thanks to its natural lanolin content, which helps protect it from external elements such as moisture. Wool is breathable and therefore ideally suited to underfloor heating. It also helps regulate humidity in the room to a certain extent and provides both sound and heat insulation.

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.
