Antique Agra - Cotton Small Scatter Size Wool Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1920s. This exquisite example of early 20th-century weaving represents the refined aesthetic typical of Agra rugs. Woven in India, these pieces often adopted the subtle color palettes and formal designs favored by European and American markets of the era. The field is characterized by a soft, muted ground that shifts between pale gray and cream, achieving the desired luminosity of an ivory color rug. The use of cotton in the foundation contributes to the rug's supple handle, while the wool pile provides a gentle texture. Accents of faded terracotta and sage green define the stylized blossoms and the complex border system. A defining feature is the repeating, structured design, utilizing an allover pattern of circular medallions and four-lobed flowers.
