Antique Silk and Wool Agra Oriental Rug 3450

Antique Agra Rug, India, circa 1910 - Created in Agra, this stunning Indian hunting rug features an outstanding rendering of a classic scene depicting the ultimate royal sport. Hand knotted with a luxurious combination of silk and wool, this beautiful rug features a fantastical scene filled with stately horsemen and hunters, who are pursuing animals on foot.
