Story Behind the Art: The Indian rug industry reached its peak during the Mughal period, especially under Emperor Akbar in the late 1500s. Initially influenced by Persian rug design, Indian weavers began developing their own distinctive aesthetic by the 17th century. Indian rugs are celebrated for their intricate knotting, use of silk-like wool, vibrant color schemes, and lifelike motifs, which have earned them international acclaim. Among these, Agra rugs stand out for their elegant fusion of Persian grandeur and Indian creativity. These rugs are known for their elaborate floral designs, detailed leaves, and large blossoms, all framed by bold, symmetrical borders. The overall design is harmonious and sophisticated, showcasing India’s rich cultural heritage.
