A white sofa and quiet walls need one thing in the room that carries the colour. This is that rug.

It is a Mamluk Chobi from our silk wash collection, hand-knotted, 11’ 10” x 8’ 9” (361 x 267 cm). Chobi is a hand-knotted rug style from Afghanistan and Pakistan. Mamluk is a geometric pattern style named after the medieval Egyptian dynasty.

It is overdyed, which means the rug is dyed a second time so the traditional pattern stays visible under one strong colour.

For a transitional room, one that mixes classic and modern pieces, it does three jobs. It gives a pale room its colour. It ties modern furniture to a traditional pattern. And at 361 x 267 cm, it is sized for a full seating area, with the sofa and coffee table sitting on it.

One of one. When it is sold, it is gone.

Most "handmade certified" claims can't actually be checked.

Label STEP can. It's a third-party fair-trade standard that audits fair wages, safe working conditions, and a hard no-child-labor rule. Not a badge someone prints on a listing.

We're one of two Label STEP certified manufacturers in Pakistan.

This is what the rug industry doesn’t want you to see.

12–13 hours a day. Around ₨1,100–1,200 for it. This weaver says fair pay starts at ₨2,000 and most workshops in this industry aren’t paying it.

This is the untold story beneath your feet — and why we got Label STEP certified, only 1 of 2 manufacturers in Pakistan, to make sure every weaver under Imam Carpets is paid fairly.

Buying a rug? Ask if the maker is certified. We are.

Aged, not worn.

What do you do with a carpet that's been in your family since 1917?

One client answered: send it to Imam Carpets. His great-grandfather bought this Persian silk in Iran. It arrived at our workshop in pieces.

Ahsan Imam is keeping every section that survived and rebuilding the rest by hand. We've done this work for 74 years.

Part 2 shows it finished — follow for it.

Jute doesn't age. It matures.

The longer it lives under your feet, the better it feels.
That's not a selling point — that's just the nature of something made properly.

Imam Carpets, since 1952.

From the field to the floor. Since 1952.

Natural jute, hand-woven, no synthetics — just the material as it comes.
