About the Item
This exquisite antique Indian rug Pashmina is a prime example of the artistry and craftsmanship that has made Indian rugs renowned worldwide. The rug features a central medallion design, often referred to as a "Mihrab" or prayer arch, symbolizing a gateway to a sacred space. The special floral motifs are masterfully hand-knotted, showcasing a rich palette of deep blues, warm reds, and earthy greens. The symmetrical layout and balanced color scheme evoke a sense of harmony and elegance, typical of the finest Indian rugs. What makes this piece particularly special is its combination of age, condition, and artistry. It likely dates back to the late 19th or early 20th century, placing it in the era when Indian rug weaving was at its peak. Despite its age, the rug has been well-preserved, with vibrant colors and a sturdy pile that speaks to the quality of the wool and dyes used. The borders are equally ornate, with repeating floral patterns and geometric elements that frame the central design beautifully. In terms of condition, the rug is in a good vintage condition. There might be minor color fading consistent with its age, but this only adds to its character, making it a true collector's item. The rug is likely to have some natural patina, which enhances its antique appeal without compromising its integrity. Historically, Indian rugs like this one were not just functional pieces but also status symbols, often used in the homes of the affluent to showcase wealth and taste. The craftsmanship involved in creating such a rug would have taken months, if not years, to complete, with each knot hand-tied by skilled artisans. The design likely has its roots in traditional Indian motifs, which often carry symbolic meanings, from protection to prosperity. For the discerning buyer, this rug is not just a floor covering but a piece of art that brings history, culture, and beauty into a home. It would be an excellent addition to any space looking for a touch of timeless elegance and sophistication. Given its rarity, condition, and the skill involved in its creation, this rug is undoubtedly worth its price, representing a valuable investment in both art and heritage. The measurement of this piece is 75 x 115 cm in size. This piece has a special design that can add beauty to your collection.
