About the Item
Antique Indian Amritsar Rug
Size: 6'8" × 15'3" (203 × 464 cm)
This distinguished antique Amritsar rug from early 20th-century India embodies the refined artistry of the region’s textile heritage. Crafted circa 1900, the rug features a rich, symmetrical field of repeated boteh (paisley) motifs—each meticulously rendered in earthy tones of camel, walnut, and espresso brown, set against a soft ivory ground. The result is a design that feels both rhythmic and organic, evoking a sense of timeless elegance.
The boteh motifs are closely aligned in a staggered formation, adding subtle visual motion and complexity to the field. Each boteh is unique, yet together they form a harmonious and balanced whole, symbolizing abundance and fertility in traditional Persian and Indian iconography.
A series of intricately patterned borders frames the composition, with the main border displaying a scrolling vine and rosette motif in warm shades of rust, brown, and beige. These floral elements provide a classic counterpoint to the geometric regularity of the field, lending the rug an added layer of sophistication.
Woven from high-quality wool and entirely hand-knotted, this Amritsar rug not only boasts durability but also a pleasingly dense texture and gentle sheen. Its palette of neutral and warm tones makes it especially versatile—ideal for anchoring a traditional interior or adding character to a more contemporary space.
A piece of historic artistry and cultural depth, this antique Indian Amritsar carpet is a rare find for collectors and connoisseurs of fine handwoven textiles.
A rare piece from the Doris Leslie Blau Collection, this rug exemplifies superior artistry and tradition. This exquisite antique rug, sourced from Doris Leslie Blau, showcases a rare blend of history and craftsmanship.
