About the Item
Large Antique Indian Agra Rug
Size: 14'0" × 18'7" (426 × 566 cm)
This majestic Antique Agra Rug from early 20th-century India showcases the grandeur and finesse of traditional Mughal-inspired artistry. Hand-knotted around 1900, this generously scaled carpet (19' x 15') was likely crafted for a palace or estate, where opulence and symmetry were paramount.
Woven in an exquisite soft terracotta and camel palette, the rug features an allover lattice of elongated oval medallions and stylized floral motifs. Each element is masterfully rendered with subtle abrash, revealing the nuanced character of the hand-dyed wool. The medallions are punctuated by intricate rosettes and delicate angular vinery, giving the field an almost tapestry-like rhythm.
A striking multi-tiered border anchors the composition, with a wide main band adorned by palmette-like ornaments and undulating scrolls framed by smaller floral guards. The warm golden tones, offset by inky blacks and creamy whites, evoke a sun-drenched elegance that would complement both classic and contemporary interiors.
Crafted using hand-spun wool and natural dyes, this antique Agra rug has aged with grace, showing gentle patina and wear that only enhances its authenticity and allure. Its dense pile and refined weave reflect the influence of Persian techniques adapted by Indian artisans to create works of enduring beauty.
Whether placed in a formal living room, a grand entryway, or a curated gallery setting, this piece tells a story of imperial heritage and timeless craftsmanship.
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.
