The design features a warm cream and beige central field decorated with an open, elegant lattice of gracefull vines, large blossoms, and delicate leaves. A warm, harmonious palette of sage green, rust, gold, soft blue, and forest green accents flows across the field. Encasing the center is a dramatic deep maroon main border intricately filled with classic palmettes and repeating floral motifs, framed by olive and beige guard borders that add clean architectural structure. this monumental palace-scale rug brings warmth, striking contrast, and historic elegance to expansive living rooms, grand dining halls, or executive spaces.\nNote: The color of your rug may appear slightly different in person than it does on screen. This happens because device displays tend to oversaturate color, and because the pile's height causes it to catch and reflect light differently depending on the direction it's brushed, which can shift how a shade reads from one angle to the next. We've done our best to photograph this rug in a way that reflects its true tone, and we'd recommend watching the video below for a more accurate sense of its colors before you order. If you're still unsure, feel free to give us a call and we're happy to walk you through it.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExact Size: 11'8\"x18'2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: Hand Knotted Rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn: New Zealand Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Beige, Maroon, Sage, Rust, Gold, Green, Multi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePile Height: 0.5 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition Description: New With Tags\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRug#: ORH20866\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eStory Behind the Art: The Indian rug industry reached its artistic peak during the Mughal era, particularly under Emperor Akbar, who established weaving centers in Agra, Delhi, and Lahore in the late 16th century. Initially influenced by Persian styles, these early rugs gradually evolved their own distinct visual language by the 17th century. Indian weavers began incorporating tighter knotting, silk-like wool, rich color palettes, and lifelike motifs—elements that would come to define the Indian rug aesthetic. This fusion of intricate craftsmanship and original design has given Indian rugs a timeless appeal and a global following. Among them, Agra rugs stand out for blending the grandeur of Persian tradition with unique Indian creativity. Known for their floral tendrils, angular vines, scrolling leaves, and large, finely detailed blossoms framed by bold borders, Agra rugs favor all-over patterns that radiate elegance and complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oriental Rug Of Houston","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52905142911269,"sku":"ORH20866","price":6999.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1141\/7716\/files\/A20866_20ebay.jpg?v=1785325579","url":"https:\/\/orientalrugofhouston.com\/products\/beige-handknotted-newzealandwool-orh20866","provider":"Oriental Rug Of Houston","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
