Emerald Green Fine Antique Indian Agra Rug

About the Item

A highly refined and elegant Agra carpet, woven on a rare emerald green background and framed by a widely spaced lemon yellow border. Agra represents the pinnacle of the decorative carpet market in that they embody the classicism of Mughal iconography with a palette that is much closer to western sensibility. They represent the ideal syncretism of style, and for this reason they have been the first choice among interior designers since the 19th century. Together with the contemporaneous Ziegler carpets, Agra has always been the trademark for noble and timeless quality.
