Vintage Indian Geometric Light Gray With Slate Gray Flatweave Cotton Runner (Size Adjusted) Agra BB8349 6'3" × 16'6" $20,000

This antique Indian cotton runner from Agra brings the disciplined geometry of a traditional flatweave into a long, tailored format. Woven in a restrained casual style, it presents an allover trellis pattern that feels both architectural and quietly decorative, a hallmark of refined Indian geometric rugs.

The light gray field is worked in slate gray outlines, forming a dense lattice of small angular motifs that repeat with measured rhythm from end to end. At either end, narrower bands introduce a change of pace with star-like medallions and stepped guard borders, giving the composition structure without interrupting its calm surface. The palette remains muted and sophisticated, with tonal contrast doing most of the visual work.

Executed in cotton and flatwoven for a slim, flexible handle, this Agra runner has the understated clarity prized by designers today. Its low-contrast pattern and crisp repeat make it well suited to hallways, passageways, and transitional interiors, where it adds texture, order, and an easy sense of heritage.

Sourced from the expansive Doris Leslie Blau collection, this vintage rug exemplifies the gallery's passion for preserving remarkable carpets of enduring beauty. DLB offers a diverse selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs, accommodating collectors and designers across every style and budget.
