About the Item
Oversized Antique Indian Botanical Rug in Faded Blue and Sand
Size: 15'7" × 23'2" (474 × 706 cm)
This exquisite oversized antique Indian rug, woven in the 1920s, is a masterclass in subtle elegance and aged charm. Measuring an impressive 23'2" × 15'7", the rug’s composition speaks to the refined artistry of early 20th-century Indian weavers, echoing the aesthetic of Mughal court carpets while presenting a palette that aligns seamlessly with modern interiors.
The design features a delicate all-over botanical motif, with scrolling vines, palmettes, and stylized floral elements gracefully stretching across the field. The once-saturated hues have mellowed with age into a soft symphony of faded robin’s egg blue, muted jade, warm sand, and antique ivory, giving the rug a gently distressed patina that enhances its historical authenticity.
Framed by a wide border in complementary tones, the composition maintains visual harmony and balance. The nuanced abrashed field — where subtle shifts in dye tones create a painterly texture — adds depth and movement, while preserving the intricate detailing of the floral tracery.
Ideal for a spacious living room, gallery, or grand dining hall, this antique Indian rug brings with it a sense of grandeur softened by time. Its muted colors and elegant proportions make it especially suited for refined traditional, transitional, or even minimalist contemporary interiors looking for a touch of antique soul.
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.
