About the Item

Agra pictorial rugs are a type of hand-knotted carpet that originated in the city of Agra, India. These rugs are known for their intricate patterns and detailed designs, which are often inspired by traditional Indian motifs and themes. Agra pictorial rugs are made using a variety of high-quality materials, including wool, silk, and cotton. The wool is usually the highest quality, with a soft and lustrous finish. The silk adds a shimmering effect to the rug, while the cotton provides a sturdy and durable base. Agra pictorial rugs are made using the traditional Persian knotting technique, in which individual knots are tied by hand to create the pattern. This process is time-consuming and requires a high level of skill, which is why Agra pictorial rugs are considered a luxury item. The patterns and designs on these rugs are often inspired by nature, with flowers, trees, and animals being common themes. Many Agra pictorial rugs also feature geometric patterns and designs that are influenced by traditional Indian art and architecture. In addition to their beautiful designs, Agra pictorial rugs are known for their durability and longevity. They are made to withstand heavy foot traffic and are easy to clean and maintain, making them a popular choice for high-traffic areas such as living rooms and entryways. These rugs are also often used as decorative pieces in formal rooms and spaces, as their intricate patterns and designs add a touch of elegance and sophistication to any setting. Overall, Agra pictorial rugs are a beautiful and luxurious addition to any home, and are sure to be a treasured piece for years to come.
