Stunning Unique Antique Art Deco Cotton White/Lilac Chequerboard Dhurrie Rug
About the Item
The weaving of flat-woven cotton carpets known as dhurries is cited in Mughal chronicles of the 15th century. Probably one of the earliest forms of floor covering, dhurries were woven in various formats according to their function, which range from bed covers to prayer mats. Most were produced in the northern region of Rajasthan, almost always in the local jails. These were often commissioned for specific areas of the Maharaja's palaces and are often of massive dimensions.
This unique example is distinguished by a large chequerboard pattern in alternating white and lilac squares, framed by a yellow and teal green Greek-fret border motif. The chromatic combination results in a truly whimsical dhurrie of great character, which has the power of transforming a room into a setting with a unique personality.
