Amritsar carpets are hand-knotted floor coverings produced in the city of Amritsar in Northern India, originating predominantly in the late nineteenth century. They were created to meet Western demand, combining classical Persian motifs with unique colour palettes tailored for European interiors.

These carpets are constructed using natural wool pile knotted onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation. The weaving utilizes traditional hand-knotted techniques, often employing high-grade wool dyed with vegetal or early synthetic dyes.

Authentic pieces typically feature soft, muted tones alongside rich berry or deep wine shades, a double-warped structure, and design elements influenced by Mughal and Safavid art. The weave density is generally moderate, providing a supple texture suitable for large spaces.

Large-format Amritsar carpets serve as foundational anchors for main drawing rooms, dining spaces, or libraries. Their expansive dimensions and central medallion compositions structure furniture placement in both traditional and eclectic modern interiors.

Regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush helps remove surface dirt without pulling fibers. The rug should be turned periodically to ensure even wear, used with a suitable rug underlay, and professionally cleaned by a specialist textile conservator when required.
