Antique Agra Indian Allover Geometric Hand Knotted Pile Rug, Country of Origin: India, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite piece represents the finest tradition of Agra rugs, known for their sophisticated design vocabulary and luxurious wool quality. Woven during the early 20th century, this textile showcases the exceptional craftsmanship that defined the golden age of Indian rugs production.

The field showcases a delicate, repeating geometric lattice pattern filled with stylized palmettes and subtle floral sprays. The central ground is rendered in a luminous ivory color, providing a neutral backdrop that allows the secondary colors—soft apricot, muted rose, and slate grey—to achieve a gentle, harmonious contrast.

The overall composition is balanced and restrained, characteristic of the formal aesthetic favored by European clientele at the time. The repeating motif avoids a central medallion, offering versatility in placement and ensuring the pattern reads elegantly from any angle. As with all genuine antique rugs, the patina and gentle wear enhance its historical character.

Its manageable dimensions classify it as a rug fitting the Small Scatter Size Rugs (4.06ft x 7.04ft), making it an ideal accent piece for an entryway, bedside, or powder room. The refined, allover pattern ensures that this textile adds depth and elegance without dominating a space, offering both utility and timeless decorative value. See less
