About the Item
72173 Late 19th Century Antique Green Indian Agra Rug, 18'07 x 30'07. Steeped in history and woven with the artistry of a bygone era, this rare Late 19th Century antique Indian Agra rug is a masterful testament to the golden age of rug weaving under British rule in India. Its breathtaking composition evokes the lush serenity of a Persian paradise garden, where nature’s splendor is immortalized in wool and dye. The exquisite green-hued field, an unmistakable hallmark of authentic Agra craftsmanship, sets the stage for an enchanting display of botanical splendor. A regal row of flowering trees blossoms along the central axis, their delicate tendrils reaching skyward in a poetic ode to life and renewal. Flanking this verdant path, majestic weeping willow columns stand as sentinels of wisdom, their cascading branches whispering stories of a lost imperial past.
As one’s gaze drifts deeper into the rug’s mesmerizing details, the intricate dance of tendrils, floral sprigs, palmettes, and sacred amulets unfolds in harmonious rhythm. Each motif, carefully hand-knotted, carries a symbolic resonance—flowers bloom in eternal spring, palmettes radiate divine protection, and star-like accents illuminate the garden’s celestial beauty. These carefully composed elements embody the fusion of Mughal opulence and Persian influences, a signature of Agra weavings commissioned for princely estates and grand British residences. Time has only deepened the richness of the naturally dyed hues, rendering a patina that glows with a soft, dreamlike radiance, as if kissed by centuries of history.
Encasing this verdant oasis is a magnificent border adorned with the Tree of Life, its stately weeping willows stretching gracefully toward infinity. This profound motif, signifying the eternal cycle of existence, is intertwined with bold palmettes—emblems of nobility and resilience. Beyond this grand frame, inner and outer floral meander guard borders, like the gentle embrace of a garden wall, lend a sense of containment and order to the lush abundance within. A final sawtooth guard stripe, a hallmark of Mughal-era refinement, completes the design with a sense of structural integrity and timeless balance.
Rare and resplendent, this Late 19th Century Agra rug is more than a mere textile—it is a woven sanctuary, a living artifact of history, and an ode to the grandeur of India’s artistic legacy. Whether adorning a stately hall or anchoring an intimate salon, this masterwork invites one to step into a world where craftsmanship and storytelling entwine. To own such a piece is to walk upon the very threads of time, where echoes of an empire and the whispers of ancient gardens still linger beneath one’s feet.
Rendered in variegated shades of celadon, moss, fern, sage, orange, pumpkin, copper, bronze, navy blue, ink blue, beige, ecru, tan, sand, coffee, and sienna with complementary colored hues.
