The resulting carpets were of exceptional quality and were made using the finest pure wool. Their designs were inspired by the classical Persian and Mughal carpets of the 16th and 17th centuries.The most famous of these weaving centres was the Agra Jail.

Product Details

The Garden of Paradise pattern is one of the most symbolic of ancient times and has been held in high regard for its relevant narrative. The connection between heaven and earth is depicted beautifully and eloquently in these carpets and the intricate depiction of the flowers, vines etc is astounding. The use of high quality wool, which has a sheen almost equivalent to silk and vegetable dyes, makes these pieces heirlooms.
