Knotted Cotton Antique Agra - 1930s Rectangle Ivory Small Scatter Size Indian Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This exceptional piece from the 1930s represents a specific era of Indian weaving, combining traditional Agra design sensibilities with the unique texture of knotted cotton. It is a fine example among our collection of antique rugs that showcase regional variations in technique and material.

The palette is defined by a sophisticated interplay of soft terracotta and muted salmon tones across the field, beautifully contrasted by the dominant ivory color palette used for the primary motifs. Subtle accents of powder blue and light beige provide depth and definition, lending the piece a gentle, sun-faded patina characteristic of its age.

The field features a highly organized, repeating design structure, executed in an allover pattern that minimizes negative space and maximizes visual texture. Stylized palmettes, arabesques, and delicate vine work flow seamlessly across the surface, contained by a complex, multi-layered border system featuring geometric and stylized floral guards.

Measuring as a small scatter size, this Agra rug offers versatility, ideal for defining a specific area in a study, entryway, or beside a bed. Its cotton construction provides a unique drape and feel, while the restrained elegance of its design ensures it complements both traditional and contemporary interiors, serving as a quiet anchor of historical artistry.
