All Over design Large Oversized Antique Indian Carpet, Country of Origin: India, Circa Date: 1920 - A wealth of crisply detailed floral designs fills the honey-hued centre of this antique Indian rug, lush with warm tones of goldenrod, sage, plum and burgundy. Obsidian black stitches form outlines and accents, uniting the swooping and curling stems and buds of the pattern, which is symmetrical both vertically and horizontally. The dense warmth of the vibrant decoration is enclosed by a series of matching borders, with pairs of slim bands flanking a larger, central strip. This wide bar is backed with a colour like pale wine, containing elaborate flowers in dark and light tones that repeat around the length and width of the antique rug.
