About the Item

Agra carpets have historically been regarded among the most refined decorative carpets. These were typically commissioned by British nobility during the colonial period to adorn their castles and palaces. This finely woven example, in excellent condition, is distinguished by an exquisite ivory background with designs in soft antique rose onto which is layered a delicately colored medallion, which feels like is almost disappearing into the pattern. I am offering this carpet on behalf of a private client and it is particularly well priced.
