Antique Amritsar Allover Light Beige Hand-Knotted Wool Rug BB9249 11'10" × 11'6"

This antique Amritsar rug, hand-knotted in India circa 1920, reflects the refined tradition of North Indian carpet weaving in a formal square format. Woven in wool, it balances precision with a softened antique patina that gives the piece a quietly graceful presence.

The light beige field is filled with an allover lattice of tiny floral and geometric motifs, creating a fine, almost tessellated surface rather than a single central medallion. Muted red, slate blue, and warm taupe form a disciplined yet lively palette, while the ornament remains compact and airy enough to keep the composition readable.

A rich muted red border frames the interior with repeating rosettes, palmettes, and scrolling floral details, lending the rug a more defined edge and a sense of architectural order. With its formal, traditional character and nuanced coloring, it works beautifully in interiors that call for an antique Indian rug with elegance, depth, and understated symmetry.

A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau collection, this antique rug exemplifies superior artistry, historic character, and timeless sophistication. DLB is internationally recognized for offering exceptional antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs of remarkable quality and provenance.
