The art of manufacturing carpets was introduced in India, probably by the great mogul Akbar (1556-1605) which brought in Persian
weavers together with skilled pattern artists mainly for producing carpets for his palace.
During the 16th, 17th and 18th century many fine carpets were woven here made of the finest sheep wool and silk, with Persian patterns.
The quality sank during the 19th century and right up to the middle of the 20th century, except some smaller productions in the cities of
Srinagar, Amritsar and Agra.
After India’s independence in 1947 the commercial manufacturing had a reawakening, even though most of the weavers had moved to
Pakistan, they reintroduced the art by their concentration on education of youths, men and women.

In India, the area surrounding the large city of Varanasi in east-central India and the area centered around Jaipur, southwest of Delhi
are the two major weaving districts. The handmade rugs that come from these districts vary widely in both design and size. We have
several on display that reflect the variety and beauty of Indian Persian rugs well.
