Agra / 10745

An Agra in wool, 305 x 411 cm, this antique rug presents a restrained, worn colourway. The field is a soft wash of cream and beige with muted teal and brown settling into a subdued patina; central floral forms and a broad cartouche border read as ghosted motifs. The pile is low and heavily worn, with scattered repairs and pronounced abrash that create subtle tonal variation. The wool fibre gives a slightly felted surface and quiet textural complexity, an object that feels measured by time and touch. Circa 1880 - 1900.
