About the Item

Antique Indian Agra Rug Size: 14'5" × 16'0" (439 × 487 cm). An exquisite example of early 20th-century craftsmanship, this antique Agra rug showcases the timeless elegance of traditional North Indian weaving. Woven circa 1900, this rug stands out for its sophisticated palette, delicate detailing, and formal symmetry, reflecting the grand tradition of Mughal-inspired Indian carpet artistry. The field features a densely packed allover herati pattern—composed of stylized rosettes and leaves swirling around a central diamond motif—executed in soft coral reds, muted blues, ivory, and subtle accents of golden yellow. The repetition of these floral forms creates a rich visual rhythm, lending the rug both energy and refinement. Surrounding the intricate field are multiple borders that demonstrate masterful control of pattern and proportion. The main border is particularly striking with its scrolling palmettes and flowering vines, all carefully articulated against a soft red ground. Flanking this are guard borders with alternating floral and vine motifs, serving as a graceful frame for the complex central design. Crafted with a cotton foundation and high-quality wool pile, the rug exhibits a dense weave and supple handle, which speak to its superior craftsmanship. The palette, though vibrant, retains a sense of softness due to age mellowing, allowing the rug to integrate seamlessly into both traditional and eclectic interiors. Despite its generous square dimensions, the rug maintains a sense of elegance and balance—its design never feels overwhelming but rather harmoniously orchestrated. A prime example of the exclusive and varied Doris Leslie Blau designs, this rug brings luxury and character to any space. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
