Antique Agra - Cotton Indian Blue 1930s Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This exquisite piece represents the enduring quality and refined aesthetic of antique rugs from the Indian subcontinent. Woven primarily in cotton, it offers a distinct texture and drape compared to traditional wool compositions, lending itself to a lighter, more casual elegance.

The palette is characterized by soft, faded tones, dominated by a gentle indigo, placing it among desirable blue color rugs, contrasted against dusty rose and an aged cream ground. This sophisticated color scheme lends the rug a tranquil, almost watercolor-like appearance, perfect for integrating subtle depth into contemporary or transitional interiors.

The field utilizes a dense, repetitive geometric lattice composed of small, stylized diamond medallions. This continuous, balanced structure defines it as a classic example of allover rugs, where the design extends seamlessly across the entire surface without a central medallion, creating visual movement and consistency.

Measuring optimally for placement in transitional spaces or beneath a small accent chair, this piece falls into the category of small scatter size rugs. Its robust construction and delicate, faded patina make it a highly versatile and collectible textile, offering a tangible connection to the artistry of 1930s Indian weaving. See less
