Agra / 22698

This Agra antique rug measures 493 x 678 cm and carries a quiet, time-softened presence. The field is worked in a dense allover floral lattice, framed by a formal border of cartouche and rosette motifs that lends structure to the expansive composition. Muted rose, red, cream, and neutral tones have mellowed into a nuanced surface with visible wear and gentle fading across the centre. Circa 1885 - 1900, it reflects the layered elegance associated with Agra rugs, with an atmosphere that feels both refined and lived in. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
