Complete your setup
Agra carpets earned their reputation in the courts of the late Mughals for fineness of knotting and a quiet elegance of drawing. The tradition migrated to the village loom and survives in pieces like this one, hand-knotted in India.
A single weaver sat at the loom across about three months of continuous work. Wool hand-spun in small lots, dyed in copper vats, then knotted against a cotton warp by feel rather than count. The back of the rug carries the drawing as clearly as the face does, which is the structural test of a carpet woven properly through every row.
The composition
A red and gold ground, a Agra pattern in deeper tones, and a quietly drawn border. The rug is built to age. Saturation softens, contrast deepens, the field warms. A naturally dyed wool of this kind does not arrive complete; it arrives ready to start.
What you are buying
Comparable hand-knotted carpets in this tradition, woven in equivalent wool and at this density, sit in the international auction range when they appear in good condition. This is a new weaving in the same idiom, on the same kind of loom, at the same standard. The rug appreciates with use rather than depreciating. There is almost no other object you put on a floor with that property.
The piece in a room
The 2' × 3' (61 × 91 cm) format suits an entry mat or layered accent piece. The red and gold palette holds against soft bone, putty, or lime-washed plaster walls, and the rug pairs cleanly with walnut, oak, linen upholstery, leather without competing for the room. Layering a smaller wool or hide over a corner gives the room a second register without breaking the main field.
Conservation
A hand-knotted carpet wants slow, careful maintenance. Rotate twice a year, vacuum without a beater bar, keep the underside dry, and have a wool conservator wash the rug every five to seven years. The pile compacts into the foundation with use; this is preservation, not wear.

Day-to-day care
- Vacuum gently once a week without a rotating brush bar — use the suction-only setting on hand-knotted or hand-tufted pieces.
- Rotate the rug 180° every 3-6 months so foot traffic and sunlight wear is even.
- Use a quality rug pad underneath for slip resistance and to extend life.
- Blot fresh spills immediately with a clean white cloth — do not rub. Work from the edge of the spill inward.
Deep cleaning
- Professional dry-cleaning is recommended every 12-24 months for hand-knotted carpets.
- Avoid steam cleaners and hot water on natural-fibre rugs (wool, silk, jute) — they can cause shrinkage and dye bleeding.
- For washable flat-weaves and cotton dhurries, machine-wash on a gentle cold cycle in a mesh bag.
Storage
- Roll (do not fold) the carpet around a clean cardboard tube, pile-side in.
- Wrap in breathable cotton sheeting (not plastic) and store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated space.
- Use moth-protection sachets if storing wool for more than a season.

Frequently asked
How long will shipping take?
Most metros (Delhi NCR, Mumbai, Bengaluru, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata) receive their order in 3-5 business days. Tier-2 cities take 5-7 business days, and remote pin codes (J&K, North-East, Andamans) take 7-10 business days. Use the pin-code checker above for a concrete delivery date.
Will the colour exactly match the photo?
Each carpet is hand-crafted with natural-dye yarns, so a small variation in shade, pattern density, and tone is expected and is part of the authenticity of a handmade piece. Colours on screen also vary by monitor and lighting. If you are matching a specific decor, request a yarn sample before ordering.
Can I get a sample before buying?
Yes — we send 2-3 small yarn / pile samples for ₹500 (refundable against your purchase). Message us on WhatsApp with the SKU and your shipping pin code to arrange a sample.
