The Antique Chinese - Baotou Hallway Runner Wool Ivory Rug is an exceptional piece from the 1920s Republican period. Hand-knotted in China with a fine wool pile, this rectangular runner features a rare narrative composition. The central ivory and beige field showcases a naturalistic landscape with stylized mountains, sika deer, and red-crowned cranes, symbolizing longevity and immortality. A sophisticated border with floral elements and vine work transitions into a deep indigo blue and black frame. With a 0.5-inch pile height, this antique rug offers historical depth and decorative appeal, making it a desirable choice for collectors and hallway spaces.
