About the Item

Exquisite 1880s Oversized Antique Indian Amritsar Rug – A Masterpiece of Regal Elegance Size: 16'3" × 20'2" (495 × 614 cm) Woven in the culturally rich city of Amritsar during the late 19th century, this oversized antique rug is a stunning example of Indian craftsmanship inspired by classical Persian aesthetics. Its expansive format makes it perfectly suited for grand interiors, lending an air of timeless sophistication and architectural presence. The field showcases a deep, moody indigo background, artfully contrasted by a graceful lattice of stylized floral motifs and serrated palmettes. These intricate botanical forms, connected by delicate vinery, are rendered in a harmonious palette of burgundy, ivory, soft gold, celadon, and pale rose—creating both drama and refinement. Framing the opulent field is a broad ivory border filled with intricate rosettes, floral sprays, and arabesque motifs, which echo the interior elements while providing structured contrast. Multiple guard borders enrich the composition with additional layers of detail and elegance. Hand-knotted from fine wool, the rug offers exceptional texture and durability, with a softly worn patina that reflects its age and authenticity. Its refined design and balanced palette make it a superb addition to formal settings such as salons, dining rooms, or grand entry halls. More than a decorative piece, this Amritsar rug represents a confluence of artistic heritage and textile mastery—an heirloom-quality treasure that elevates any space it inhabits. 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.
