About the Item

Ethereal Elegance: 1930s Vintage Cotton Agra Rug Size: 8.5" × 13.8" (256 × 416 cm). Softly whispering tales of refined tradition, this rare cotton Agra rug from the 1930s exudes a sense of understated luxury. Woven in India’s historic city of Agra, this piece showcases the finesse of hand-loomed cotton craftsmanship with a palette of pale blue and ivory that feels serene, fresh, and timeless. The design features a delicate all-over honeycomb motif, complemented by rhythmic rows of small geometric and floral borders. The subtlety of the patterning enhances its dreamy character, while the finely executed weave offers texture and structure without overwhelming the eye. Each detail is gently articulated, suggesting quiet sophistication and meditative harmony rather than bold statement. Exceptionally lightweight and cool underfoot, this piece speaks to the simplicity and elegance of colonial-era Indian textiles, making it ideal for light-filled interiors, minimalist decor, or layered Bohemian spaces that seek texture without color saturation. With its soft tonal contrasts, enduring materials, and meticulous craftsmanship, this vintage cotton Agra rug stands as a serene and timeless expression of antique Indian weaving. 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.
