Hyderabad Bookmark

This beautiful bookmark is part of the Truck Art Collection which has been inspired by the vibrant colours which can be found on the Trucks.

Truck art is a popular form of regional decoration in South Asia, with Pakistani and Indian trucks featuring elaborate floral patterns and calligraphy. Pakistani decorated trucks servicing Afghanistan came to be known as jingle trucks by American troops and contractors.

This bookmark has been named after Hyderabad, the second largest city in Sindh & its historical capital of Sindh because it is home to the tombs of the Talpur Mir which comprises of a lot of blue brickwork.

The province of Sindh is in the South of the country, by the Arabian Sea.

All bookmarks are made individually using locally handicrafts.
