Antique Agra Indian Allover Geometric Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Runner – Circa 1920 (Size Adjusted) BB8997 4'0" × 11'0" $10,000

This 1920’s Antique Agra Runner (Size Adjusted) is a striking example of India’s renowned weaving traditions, masterfully balancing bold contrasts and refined floral detail. Its elongated format, now size-adjusted, makes it particularly versatile for hallways, galleries, or narrow living spaces while retaining all the grandeur of an Agra carpet.

The design showcases a dense allover pattern of stylized palmettes, flowering vines, and angular tendrils arranged against a rich midnight black field. Shades of caramel brown, sand, taupe, and soft beige create an elegant interplay, illuminating the intricate botanical motifs with subtle depth. The runner’s wide border frames the composition with alternating floral rosettes and angular ornaments in warm camel, ivory, and dark espresso, lending balance and definition.

Woven by hand in the 1920s, the runner embodies the durability and sophistication for which Agra rugs are celebrated. The use of fine wool ensures a dense, soft pile with a lustrous finish that enhances both the dramatic dark ground and the delicate floral tracery.

Timeless yet bold, this antique Agra runner brings historic charm and architectural elegance to interiors, harmonizing beautifully with both traditional and modern settings.
