19th Century Oversized Indian Agra in Pale Purple, Gray, Burgundy, Pale Gold
About the Item
An exceptional 19th-century oversized Indian Agra rug featuring a majestic large-scale medallion design in a rare and ethereal palette of pale purple, soft gray, burgundy, and pale gold. The composition centers around an elegant medallion in tones of cream, gray, and burgundy, set on a luminous pale gold field. Gracefully scattered arabesques in subtle gray tones float across the background, adding depth and movement to the design.
Framed by multiple borders, the widest rendered in a deep burgundy with stylized gold palmettes, this rug exudes refined Mughal elegance. Woven during the 1800s, it carries the legacy of classical Indian craftsmanship rooted in the grandeur of the 15th–16th century Mughal aesthetic. Its generous scale and rare coloration make it an extraordinary statement piece for spacious interiors, formal settings, or sophisticated design projects.

This exquisite 19th-century Indian Agra rug is a rare and striking example of refined craftsmanship and historic design. Hand-knotted in the late 1800s, the rug features an allover garden motif—a hallmark of classical Agra weaving inspired by the royal Mughal courts.
