{"product_id":"slate-handknotted-wool-orh22001","title":"Hand Knotted Wool Rug Slate, Blue Traditional Agra Gold Wash High Sheen 6'1''x9","description":"Gold, cream and burgundy meet in this Agra rug, a cheerful take on the classic border design. The rug features a pale gold center with floral sprays in green, coral and brown, outlined by a deep burgundy band of large blossoms and a gold outer edge. Seen here, the border colors contrast sharply with the soft center, so the design reads clearly from across the floor. Hand-knotted from wool, this hand-knotted wool rug has a dense pile that is pet and kid friendly and vacuums easily. It is a traditional area rug with antique reproduction style, handmade for daily use.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExact Size: 6'1\"x9\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: Hand Knotted Rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn: Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Slate, Blue, Orange, Ivory, Aqua, Taupe\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePile Height: 0.75 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition: New \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition Description: New With Tags\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRug#: ORH22001\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":54402043576613,"sku":"ORH22001","price":800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1141\/7716\/files\/A22001.jpg?v=1793945988","url":"https:\/\/orientalrugofhouston.com\/products\/slate-handknotted-wool-orh22001","provider":"Oriental Rug Of Houston","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
