Story Behind the Art: The Indian rug industry flourished artistically during the Mughal era, especially under Emperor Akbar, who established weaving centers in Agra, Delhi, and Lahore in the late 16th century. While initially inspired by Persian designs, Indian rugs gradually developed their own distinctive style by the 17th century. Craftsmen introduced tighter knotting, silk-like wool, vibrant color schemes, and lifelike motifs that came to define the Indian aesthetic. This blend of meticulous technique and original artistry has made Indian rugs celebrated worldwide. Agra rugs, in particular, exemplify this fusion, showcasing floral tendrils, angular vines, scrolling leaves, and large, detailed blossoms framed by striking borders, often arranged in all-over patterns that exude elegance and sophistication.
