Antique Amritsar Indian Rug 43727
Sold
Antique Amritsar Rug, India, circa 1900 - The splendor of the Mogul Dynasty is alive and well on this sumptuous antique Indian Amritsar. Like the
great Mogul court classical Persian inspiration, although combined with more
exotic, native Indian plant motifs as well. The palmette and cloudband border
reverses the gold and ivory palette of the field for framing contrast, yet
preserving its scale for a unified decorative effect. What is not classical
Indian or Persian is the palette, with its soft, luminous, decorative coloration
in place of the more vibrant, pungent color typical of Mogul
carpets.
