Doris Leslie Blau Authentic Indian Amritsar Handmade Wool Carpet

About the Item

Authentic Indian Amritsar handmade wool carpet (size adjusted) Size: 13'3" × 20'2" (403 × 614 cm) While India does in fact boast a long history of weaving, Amritsar rugs are unique in the wide gamut of traditional Indian styles. This is because the weavers of Amritsar had not developed a distinctive style of rug making until the early 19th century – hundreds of years after other regions of India had first developed their own weaving traditions. This mesmerizing antique Indian rug shows the immense diversity of Amritsar designs. Its color palette is well-thought-out and will easily match contemporary décors. As befits a genuine Amritsar carpet, this one was masterfully hand-knotted of the finest threads in accordance with old and refined weaving techniques by a skilled artisan. It shows in the soft and durable pile which will serve its lucky owners for generations without any signs of wear. Due to its impeccable execution and timeless design, this sublime antique Indian rug will easily fit into any contemporary household, bringing in vibrancy and exotic atmosphere. 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.
