About the Item

Early 20th Century Indian Handmade Wool Rug Size: 10'5" × 13'7" (317 × 414 cm) The importance of rugs in Indian culture is undeniable. Availability of materials such as dyes and fiber made the creation of Indian rugs much easier in the South Asia than anywhere else. The world of antique Oriental rugs is more vast than some might suspect, as they are woven all across Asia. Depending on region, Oriental rugs often exhibit open fields with minor medallions and spandrels, surrounded by tasteful floral borders. The design of this stunning antique Indian rug shows the best of what Indian culture has to offer. Rug's color palette perfectly complements the pattern thanks to the depth of its hues and their vivacity. 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.
