Doris Leslie Blau Antique Indian Handmade Wool Carpet

About the Item

Antique Indian handmade wool carpet Size: 10'1" × 19'9" (307 × 601 cm) An early 20th century Indian rug, the abrashed dusty red field with an exotic animal, palette and cloudband trellis overall, within a black cloudband and palmette border. As an eminent patron of the arts, Jahangir (reigning from 1605-1628), possessed a deep love for the beauty of nature, influencing the artists of his court. Unlike antique carpets manufactured in the prisons of India, antique North Indian rugs were products of a cottage industry controlled by families of carpet weavers. With a knotted pile of the softest pashmina wool, the antique North Indian carpets in NYC originated and perfected by these weaving families, have to this day, rarely been equaled. 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.
