Palace Size Beige Mughal Garden Persian Oriental Area Rug 12x18 Wool id11674

Mughal Garden pattern originates from a carpet woven in Northern India in the mid 1600ƒ?Ts. An antique carpet (ca. 1650) in the same design, only woven in pashmena wool on a silk foundation, is on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. During this time period flowers moved from being highlight designs to being the primary design of the carpets. These carpets bloomed with naturalistic floral motifs. Mughal carpets were also an inspiration to the famed William Morris and other arts & crafts innovators.
