About the Item

Authentic 19th century Indian Amritsar handmade wool rug Size: 19'2" × 21'10" (584 × 665 cm) This stunning Amritsar rug was handwoven in the late 19th century, circa 1880. The beauty of this composition lies not only in the design itself, but also the amount of attention that the weaver paid to every single detail. The pattern consists of an open field, which serves as a background for an unusual geometric medallion containing and surrounded by minor stylized floral motifs within a dense floral motif border. The color palette of this antique Indian rug, while modest, is surprisingly elegant. Warm shades of earthy brown and sandy yellow work together marvelously, resulting in a perfect balance. A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition. This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship.
