The carpet-making traditions of the Middle East and Southeast Asia date back hundreds and thousands of years, and include some of the most beautiful and intricately detailed work in the history of human handicrafts. Many in the West may still know them as Oriental rugs, but that term encompasses a host of highly esteemed regional carpet styles and national rug making traditions, including Indian, Tibetan, Nepalese, Chinese, Pakistani, Turkish, and Persian rugs, all of which can be found here at ALRUG.

Jaldar design originated in Pakistan with inspiration from traditional Sarouk and Yamud designs. A typical Jaldar design is often in silk and wool with similar Gul motifs, although more elongated and diamond-shaped, to a Bokhara rug repeated in rows. They are famous for their thick wool pile and beautiful sheen, and the feel of the wool is soft and velvety, with a very dense, hand-knotted pile. Jaldar rugs are normally distinguished by their characteristic red to red-brown background color, with white, beige, black and blue are other colors commonly used. The knot counts range from 144 to 242 knots per square inch.

More than 500 years ago, the Persians invaded Indo-Pak sub-continent from the northwest, bringing with them their most treasured possessions, their meticulously handcrafted rugs. Over time, this mingling of cultures gave birth to carpets with their own unique themes, delicate patterning and vivid palette of colors. Today, handmade carpets are produced in different cities in Pakistan like Lahore, Karachi, Peshawar, Rawalpindi, Dera Ghazi Khan among many others. Considerably less expensive than other rugs of this genre, they are ideal for virtually every room in your home.
