74662 Antique Agra Indian Rug, 08'07 x 11'04.
Full of tiny details and tribal style, this hand-knotted wool antique Indian Agra rug is a captivating vision of woven beauty. The eye-catching hunting scene and earthy colorway woven into this antique agra rug work together creating a truly unique look. The abrashed field features an elephant and royal howdah in the centre surrounded by an allover botanical pattern composed of meandering vines, animal motifs and trees. It is enclosed with a cartouche border flanked with an inner and outer guard band.
Unlike any other Indian rug, this agra carpet allows the viewer to continuously discover fascinating subjects, from the royal howdah and elephant to the cheetahs (leopards) and tigers to the phoenix and flying birds. The sense of flight is evident throughout the rug as the predators hunt their prey. Howdahs were used in the past to carry wealthy people or for use in hunting or warfare.
