Spectacular Amritsar Carpet, India, 5.30m X 4.30m

19th century
Description

Very limited range of colours but used in a very exotic way. Note the two shades of green. The design is expressive and beautiful, in fact I have never seen anything like it! Hand-made in the famous Amristar carpet workshops circa 1880. Very solid structure, so hardwearing. Minimal signs of use which one would expect for a carpet of this age. Original ends intact, minimal restoration. This is a very impressive carpet woven in a palatial size. Professionally cleaned in my workshop. Home visits can be arranged by request.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Amritsar carpets originated in the Punjab region of Northern India during the late nineteenth century, created under the influence of weaver guilds that blended classical Persian patterns with European aesthetic preferences. They are recognised for their subtle palette variations, intricate floral motifs, and high knot density.

These carpets are hand-knotted using high-grade wool piles woven onto a sturdy cotton warp and weft foundation. The asymmetrical knotting technique allows for detailed curvilinear floral patterns and intricate border designs.

Authentic examples feature soft wool textures, flexible cotton foundations, and distinctive colour palettes often combining muted tones alongside rich reds, greens, or creams. Examining the reverse side reveals individual asymmetrical hand knots rather than uniform machine stitching.

A large patterned carpet anchors a living space when placed beneath primary furniture groupings such as dining sets or main seating arrangements. The classic floral motifs provide colour and texture that balance contemporary neutral walls and streamlined furniture.

Vacuum regularly using suction only, avoiding rotating beater bars that can loosen fibres. Professional cleaning by a specialist rug conservator is recommended to remove dirt while preserving natural wool oils and vegetable dyes.
