  • Key Characteristics of Agra Rugs

    Agra wool rugs are typically hand-knotted using high-quality natural materials. The resulting aesthetic highlights distinctive color palettes in soft earth tones, muted reds, ivory hues, and delicate blues. While Agra area rugs use Persian designs as inspiration, a key distinction is the use of large-scale designs and spacious layouts to balance the floral motifs, palmettes, and flowing vine work.
