Beautiful and Extremely Decorative Large Size and Soft Mauve Color Antique Indian Agra Carpet, Country Of Origin / Rug Type: Antique Indian Rugs, Circa Date: Late 19th Century – Subtle mauve colors and mellowed crimson create curves in this large sized antique Indian Agra rug.

This antique Agra carpet has a highly refined sense of formality that is emphasized by the symmetry of its design and organization around a central medallion. The corners of the field are given equal weight central medallion. In addition, the series of formal borders take up a considerable area of the Indian carpet. Each of these formal elements is given nearly equal weight in the design, giving the rug a balanced feel, yet a sense of grand scale as well.

This timeless and masterful antique carpet will make an excellent addition as the centerpiece of any larger room. The mellowed colors of the antique Indian Agra carpet transform it into a piece that will add texture and color to the room, without drawing attention to itself. This Agra carpet could play a complementary role, or it could serve as the main attraction in a room with equally weighted subtle colors.
