Early 20th Century N. Indian Amritsar Carpet ( 9'2" x 11'8" - 280 x 355 )
Antique Indian Amristar rug with Medallion on light green background
Amritsar
This north Indian city is the religious seat of the Sikhs. In the late 19th century a weaving industry catering to export demand through British dealers was created. Before that no rugs were woven in Amritsar. Production is almost all carpet sizes, many quite square and often in medallion and corners layouts on open fields. The ornament is simplified, thus allowing for rapid production and moderate prices. The weave is generally quite coarse and the rugs are lighter in handle than Agras.
