The Antique Large Peking Chinese Medallion Knotted Rug is a magnificent example of early 20th-century Chinese weaving, dating back to the 1900s. This rectangular wool rug features a deep, saturated indigo field that provides a dramatic contrast to its ivory and gold motifs. Hand-knotted in China, the design showcases a central circular medallion depicting delicate branches, stylized flora, and subtle bird motifs symbolizing longevity and happiness. The expansive navy background is typical of the Peking style, emphasizing the purity of the abstract and oriental patterns. Framed by ornate borders of scrolling vines and large blossoms on a pale gold ground, this large oversized rug serves as a sophisticated foundational element for grand interior spaces. With a 0.5-inch pile height, it offers a velvety texture and timeless elegance.
