About the Item
Early 20th Century N. Indian Lahore Carpet ( 13'10" x 20'8" - 422 x 630 ).
This exceptional piece from the British Raj era showcases the refined weaving tradition of Lahore, a center known for producing rugs that rivaled Persian court carpets. The sheer scale of this piece makes it a commanding foundation for any grand interior, fitting perfectly within our collection of large oversized rugs.
The palette is defined by a soft, ethereal sky blue field, which has mellowed beautifully over a century, providing a serene backdrop for the complex design. This calming hue is dramatically framed by a wide main border rendered in deep rose and magenta tones, a classic contrast that highlights the rug's stately proportions. This specific shade places it among the finest examples of blue color rugs from the period.
Despite the title's reference to geometric structure, the field is densely populated with an intricate, all-over pattern of stylized palmettes, delicate blossoms, and meandering vines, characteristic of classical Indian court designs influenced by Safavid aesthetics. The complexity of the knotting ensures that the pattern retains its clarity even after decades of use, reflecting the high caliber of early 20th-century craftsmanship.
A testament to the enduring artistry of the subcontinent, this Lahore rug offers both historical weight and timeless elegance. Its condition and age make it a superb acquisition for collectors seeking genuine antique rugs with exceptional provenance and decorative versatility, promising to anchor a sophisticated room design for generations to come.
