An early 20th-century Indian Amritsar carpet from around 1900, measuring approximately 274.4 × 335.5 cm (about 9’0″ × 11’0″). The composition centers on a medallion design over an aqua field, framed by an ivory border — an unusual cool, refreshing color register for an Amritsar carpet of this period.
Amritsar, in the Punjab region of northern India, was a major center of room-sized hand-knotted carpet production in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
Hand-knotted wool. Authentic one-of-a-kind antique.
