Indian Agra Rug (Size Adjusted) BB8835 9'7" × 14'0" $45,000

This antique Indian Agra rug (size adjusted), dating from the Early 20th Century, displays an exceptionally intricate and symmetrical allover design, reflecting the refined artistry of Agra’s renowned weaving tradition. The field is richly decorated with an array of stylized floral motifs, leafy vinery, and serrated palmettes, carefully arranged in a grid-like structure that balances geometry with organic fluidity. Rendered in a warm, earthy palette of sand beige, camel, walnut brown, and touches of black and ivory, the pattern exudes quiet elegance and timeless appeal. The border is particularly expressive, featuring a complex layering of floral meanders and traditional guard bands, contributing a strong visual frame to the detailed field. Woven from fine wool, the rug boasts a dense weave and soft pile, indicative of the high quality associated with antique Agra carpets. With its versatile coloration and intricate yet balanced composition, this piece would lend warmth and sophistication to both traditional and transitional interiors.
