Agra / 18497

This Agra antique rug, measuring 295 x 358 cm, has a layered, time-softened character, with a burgundy ground, ivory border, and restrained notes of rose, taupe, pale blue, and muted gold. Its design pairs a densely patterned centre with a wide surround of repeating medallions and scrolling floral forms, creating a composition that feels both formal and quietly worn. Medium distress has softened the contrasts and introduced a lived-in patina across the surface. Circa 1900 - 1925, it captures the balanced ornament and gentle ageing often sought in an Agra weaving.
