Naserpur

Naserpur was a noted textile centre in the Indus plain of Sindh. In the seventeenth century an English merchant reported that thousands of weaving families worked there, supplying cloth to traders at Thatta and to markets beyond the sea. Demand for Sindhi textiles increased after famine disrupted production in Gujarat. The town also became known for glazed pottery and tiles, products of skilled craftspeople working with the clay and colours of the river country.
