Antique Amritsar Carpet
About the Item
The city of Amritsar, in the Punjab region in northwest India, began producing carpets in the 19th Century when Kashmir was annexed by Maharaja Ranjit Singh. Kashmir was a major weaving center of shawls at the time. The looms established here by both British and American firms utilized the availability of good quality wool from sheep that grazed in the nearby mountains. The designs were primarily inspired by classical Persian, Turkish, and Mughal carpets from the 16th and 17th Centuries. As these carpets were woven for export purposes, it is not uncommon to find them in over-size or palace dimensions. This example is in an unusual roughly square size of 10' 10" x 10' 1". In excellent overall condition.
