This 11x13 antique Agra rug is an extremely rare and exciting new addition to Rug & Kilim’s collection of Indian jail rugs—hand-knotted in wool and believed to originate from India circa 1900.On the DesignDesigners and admirers of the craft alike will particularly appreciate its size—one of the best and most versatile one can find turn-of-the-century Agra rugs, and well-suited to so many spaces today. Our Principal Jahanshah Nazmiyal calls this a particular finer weave and more beautiful drawing that admirers of the craft will appreciate among works of this provenance, especially for the scale and large-size which are equally sought-after by curators and designers today. Tones of green and beige underscore floral patterns in the all over style, with polychromatic accents and tones the motifs favor. Keen eyes will further admire the deft hand such finely drawn patterns enjoy in this piece, and the overall balance of an elegant, yet comfortable mood—an exemplary find in Indian rugs of its period. There’s a particularly thoughtful, if not masterful, sense of movement in the marriage of color and pattern here—particularly where the warm gold of the field underscores an impressive range of colors in the all over floral patterns that still manage to sit so comfortable and complementary to the center. It’s an unsung and subtle, yet skillful detail connoting the work of a deft hand in its period. Condition: This antique Agra jail rug further enjoys great condition for its age and lineage.
