About the Item

This remarkable antique Agra rug, measuring 9'10" x 9'11", originates from circa 1900 and represents the pinnacle of Indian craftsmanship during this era. Known for their opulent designs and superb artistry, Agra rugs like this one were often inspired by Persian and Mughal influences, blending intricate patterns with rich color palettes to create timeless masterpieces. The rug features an exquisite all-over field of densely packed floral and vine motifs, meticulously woven to form a harmonious tapestry of intricate detail. The design incorporates stylized flowers, curling vines, and geometric elements, each carefully arranged to achieve an elegant symmetry. The deep, earthy red of the background provides a striking contrast to the soft gold, beige, and ivory tones of the floral patterns, giving the rug a sophisticated yet inviting presence. The border is a masterpiece in itself, composed of multiple layers of decorative bands. The innermost band is adorned with delicate vines, transitioning into wider borders featuring ornate palmettes and blossoms, all interconnected by graceful, scrolling tendrils. The outermost edge is framed by a narrow band of repeating motifs, creating a sense of balance and completeness to the overall design. Hand-knotted using high-quality wool, this Agra rug boasts a dense weave and a soft texture that speaks to its exceptional craftsmanship. The rug’s patina, developed over more than a century, adds a layer of character and warmth, making it an enduring piece of art that tells its own story. This Agra rug is not only a collector’s item but also a versatile addition to a range of interior styles, from traditional to eclectic. Its timeless design and rich history make it a perfect statement piece for any space, whether showcased as a centerpiece in a living room or as a distinguished accent in a dining area.
