Indian Antique Allover Warm Tan Hand-Knotted Wool Carpet – Circa 1920 (Size Adjusted) BB7110 12'9" × 14'9" $42,000

This exquisite 1920’s antique Indian rug reflects the grandeur and refinement of traditional Indian weaving, inspired by Persian Sivas artistry but reinterpreted with a distinctive Indian sensibility. Woven nearly a century ago, it carries the grace of age, with its time-softened palette and patina enhancing its character.

The rug features a lush all-over design, where scrolling vinery, palmettes, and delicate blossoms unfurl across a field of deep chocolate brown, accented by warm terracotta, soft camel, and golden sand tones. Subtle hints of faded rust and parchment lend the piece an earthy, organic richness that feels both regal and inviting.

The wide border frames the composition with alternating boteh motifs and floral medallions, a rhythmic sequence that reinforces the balance and harmony of the central field. Its densely packed botanical motifs, rendered with a painterly quality, showcase the finesse of master artisans who blended artistry with durability.

Hand-knotted in wool, this rug bears a supple yet resilient pile, its texture made even more sumptuous by the natural sheen of its fibers. The gentle wear and tonal abrash—a hallmark of authentic antique rugs—add depth and individuality, making this piece not only a functional floor covering but a living work of art.

With its impressive size and dignified aesthetic, this antique Indian rug would serve as a majestic foundation for a formal living room, library, or grand dining space, while its warm, understated palette allows it to integrate seamlessly into both traditional and modern interiors.
