Emperor Akbar set up rug weaving centers in Agra, Delhi, and Lahore during the late 16th century, and by the 17th century, Indian rugs grew their own iconography and differed significantly from their prototypes. The tight weaving, silk-like wool, bright, deep color range, and realistic motifs became defining features of Indian rugs. Today, Agra rugs combine the grandeur and grace of well-known antique rug designs with their own original themes, featuring floral tendrils, angular vines and stars, scrolling leaves, vines, and large finely detailed flowers with bold floral borders.
