Antique Amtritsar carpet, India, late 19th century This elegant antique Amritsar provides a last glimpse of the splendor of Mogul India. Here the traditional palette of reds, greens, and soft saffrons from the great Mogul carpets of the classic era re-emerges in a rich pattern of soft red and green interlacing arabesques enclosing ivory and green palmettes and flowers of all sorts. The dominant red field is beautifully balanced by the ivory ground arabesque and palmette border.
