It was the rulers of the Mughal dynasty who initiated carpet making in India. While the influences and style of Persian art were evident in the first Indian carpets, over time a true Indian tradition developed that led to the creation of refined and visually striking carpets.
Six centuries of history
The earliest historical records date the arrival of carpets in India to the 16th century. At that time, the Persian tradition was already highly developed and particularly fine carpets were produced in the Middle East regions, adorning royal and imperial palaces.
In the 16th century, the Mughal ruling family called a group of skilled craftsmen from Persia to India to adorn the emperor’s palace. These expert carpet makers brought Persian wool and their craftsmanship with them. From the work of these skilled weavers, what today is one of the most original Asian manufacturing traditions developed.
Indian carpets are thus directly descended from Persian carpets. While in the early centuries these two styles were such that they overlapped each other perfectly, with the passage of time what can be defined as the Indian style became established. This style is partly traceable to the traditions of neighbouring countries and partly the result of an original elaboration by Indian craftsmen.
Between the 16th and 18th centuries, when carpet production in India reached its highest level, the cities of reference for carpet knotting were Agra, Lahore and Fatepur Sikri. Even today, these cities are important centres for the creation and marketing of fine carpets for an international audience.
Traditional Indian carpets have a compact structure and a high knot density. The knots used are asymmetrical, typical of the Persian school, resulting in durable, warm carpets with a strong personality.
