Description
An early 20th century Indian Agra rug, the camel field with an overall design of rows of staggered boteh separated by chocolate stylized palmettes within a whimsical cocoa boteh border.
Although distinguished by captivating history and indisputably mesmerizing appearance, antique rugs are hard to tell apart from other examples of fine Indian weaving. In fact, these fascinating floor coverings are even difficult to classify as they vary considerably is terms of size, design and composition. Nonetheless, some of the most impressive and breathtaking examples of paramount craftsmanship has been seen on indian style rugs. In general, antique Agra rugs most often exhibit open fields with minor medallions and spandrels, surrounded by tasteful floral borders.
However, there are many instances of antique Agra large area rugs sizes with all-over, dense and highly decorative patterns. Floral tendrils, angular vines and stars are frequent guests on masterfully executed fields of Agra carpets. -
