{"product_id":"gold-handknotted-wool-silk-aor20902","title":"Gold Brown 8x10 Agra Transitional Designer Hand Knotted Wool Silk Oriental Area Rug","description":"Grand Agra-inspired botanical design meets the luxurious interplay of wool and silk in this richly detailed hand-knotted area rug. Drawing from the elaborate court carpets associated with Mughal-era weaving, the composition features sweeping floral vines, substantial palmettes, and finely articulated decorative elements arranged across a glowing golden-amber field. A deep espresso-brown border creates dramatic definition around the design, while carefully placed accents of rust, mint, and burnt orange bring additional warmth and complexity to the palette. Fine wool provides softness, structure, and body, while genuine silk highlights selected details with a subtle iridescence that changes depending on the direction of the light. Individually tied knots give the pattern impressive clarity and reinforce the unmistakable character of handcrafted construction. Ideal for a formal living room, dining room, library, or generously scaled interior, this Agra-style rug brings depth, warmth, and an elegant sense of historical influence to the floor. Note: Because this rug was photographed under controlled studio lighting, its colors may appear somewhat more saturated on screen. We recommend viewing the accompanying video to better appreciate the true golden, brown, rust, mint, and orange tones as well as the silk’s natural sheen.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExact Size: 8x10\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeave: Hand Knotted Rug\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYarn: Wool \u0026amp; Silk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColor: Gold, Brown, Mint, Rust, Beige, Burnt Orange, Multi\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePile Height: 0.5 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition:  \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCondition Description: New with Tag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRug#: AOR20902\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\t\t\t\u003cp\u003eStory Behind the Art: Agra rugs reflect one of the most refined periods of Indian carpet weaving, when Mughal-era workshops transformed Persian-inspired design into a distinctive local tradition. Artisans developed tighter knotting, smoother wool surfaces, richer color relationships, and increasingly expressive floral drawing, giving Indian rugs a recognizable identity of their own. Agra designs became known for all-over arrangements filled with scrolling foliage, angular vines, large blossoms, floral tendrils, and richly developed borders. The resulting compositions combine formal balance with natural movement, creating rugs that feel intricate without appearing rigid. This fusion of technical skill and decorative originality has helped Agra-inspired weaving remain admired across generations.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"American Oriental Rug","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52172857540828,"sku":"AOR20902","price":2399.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/1996\/6684\/files\/A20902_20aor.jpg?v=1786094671","url":"https:\/\/americanorientalrug.com\/products\/gold-handknotted-wool-silk-aor20902","provider":"americanorientalrug","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
