Antique Agra Carpet
About the Item
An oversize late 19th-early 20th century antique Indian Agra carpet. Large-scale Pigeons can be spotted on green colored ground.
Agra carpets combine the grandeur and grace of well-known Persian court antique carpet designs with new motifs of their own creation. Overall designs or central medallions of spiraling vinery are frequently combined with small animal forms, sometimes including birds, elephants or people. This particular piece has humans using bow and arrows to along the four corners of the carpet.
The weavers of Agra were masters at vegetable dyeing and developed a unique palette of colors when weaving their rugs. They also use a range of soft rust-reds to pinks and an appealing lavender tone. These colors give many Agra rugs a unique light and a glorifying appearance which is stunning in the home.
