Elegant Vintage Indian Geometric Light Gray With Navy Blue Flatweave Cotton Runner (Size Adjusted) Agra BB8348 6'4" × 19'9" $22,000

This antique Indian Agra runner, handwoven in cotton circa 1940, translates a traditional flatweave into a long, elegant format suited to hallways and circulation spaces. Its light gray ground is organized by a disciplined navy blue geometric repeat that feels both crisp and restrained.

The field is filled with a tightly packed lattice of small angular motifs, creating a steady rhythm across the entire rug. At each end, striped terminal panels interrupt the repeat with measured contrast, while the narrow border keeps the composition clean and architectural. The overall effect is tailored rather than ornate, with the geometry carrying the design.

Agra weaving is often admired for balancing structure and softness, and this piece captures that balance with quiet confidence. The cotton construction contributes a supple, lightweight character, while the low-contrast palette allows the pattern to read clearly without visual heaviness. It is a versatile vintage rug for contemporary interiors as well as more traditional settings.

Curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this vintage rug represents the enduring beauty and craftsmanship that have defined the gallery since its establishment in 1965.
