Antique Agra Indian Ivory 1920s Rug, Country of Origin: India, Circa Date: 1920s. This exceptional piece exemplifies the grand scale and subdued elegance characteristic of Agra rugs produced during the early 20th century. The design features a highly sophisticated, all-over pattern, suggesting the influence of classical Persian court carpets adapted for Western tastes. The palette is dominated by soft, muted tones, primarily a rich field of ivory and beige accented by warm caramel and subtle hints of faded sage green. The gentle oxidation and abrash visible throughout the field speak to its age and authenticity, highlighting the natural dyes utilized by the skilled Weavers of India. This restrained coloring allows the intricate drawing of the palmettes and vinery to emerge subtly.
