Agra, renowned as a major center of area rug and carpet production, has a rich history dating back to the great period of Mughal art in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. The revival of the carpet industry in the nineteenth century under British rule breathed new life into the great Mughal tradition. During this renaissance, Agra carpets embraced classically derived designs, reflecting the influences of Persian rug production of the same period. As a result, these nineteenth and early twentieth-century Agra carpets boast a varied and eclectic background, drawing on the great achievements of Oriental carpet weaving.

Despite the passage of time, the beauty and elegance of many antique Agra rugs endure. Their timeless design, exceptional craftsmanship, and durable materials ensure that these rugs are not mere artifacts but cherished pieces that can be passed down through generations.
