Antique Oversized Lahore Indian Geometric Knotted Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece from the British Raj era showcases the refined weaving tradition of Lahore, a center known for producing rugs that rivaled Persian court carpets. The sheer scale of this piece makes it a commanding foundation for any grand interior, fitting perfectly within our collection of large oversized rugs. The palette is defined by a soft, ethereal sky blue field, which has mellowed beautifully over a century, providing a serene backdrop for the complex design. This calming hue is dramatically framed by a wide main border rendered in deep rose and magenta tones, a classic contrast that highlights the rug's stately proportions. This specific shade places it among the finest examples of blue color rugs from the period.
