About the Item

Oversized 1920s Antique Indian Botanical Rug Size: 14'8" × 30'6" (447 × 929 cm) A testament to India’s rich textile heritage, this magnificent oversized antique Indian rug from the 1920s captures the essence of botanical beauty with sublime grace and understated opulence. The rug exemplifies the Mughal influence on Indian carpet weaving, showcasing an allover floral design rendered in a soothing, earth-toned palette. The field is adorned with scattered, stylized flowerheads, delicate vine scrolls, and leafy motifs in soft hues of faded peach, camel, aqua, olive, and pale ivory. These subtle, weathered tones are beautifully complemented by the warm cinnamon and walnut browns of the wide, ornate border, which features a classic palmette and vine pattern. The delicate abrash and natural patina of the wool enrich the rug with an elegant antique character. Hand-knotted with great precision and made from high-quality wool, this rug boasts a refined texture and excellent craftsmanship. Despite its decorative appeal, the piece retains a quiet sophistication that allows it to blend seamlessly into a variety of interiors—be it traditional, transitional, or even minimalist contemporary spaces. As a fine example of Indian artistry from the early 20th century, this botanical carpet is not only a functional floor covering but also a collectible heirloom that tells a story of design history, cultural legacy, and enduring craftsmanship. 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.
