Carpet weaving in India has a rich history dating back to the early Mughal Dynasty in the 16th century, when Indian craftsmen began adopting Persian techniques and designs. This fusion of Persian artistry with Indian craftsmanship led to the creation of unique carpet styles that became highly sought after across the world. The Mughal influence is particularly noticeable in carpets produced in regions such as Agra, Amritsar, Kashmir, and the Mughal courts.
