Strong indigo blue details offset the luxurious saffron-yellow field of this Chinese rug along with complementary accents in apricot pink and subtle earth tones, making it as beautiful to behold today as it was upon its initial weaving over one hundred years ago. Chinese rugs have long been considered to be unique and highly desirable in the Western world, so much so that many antique Chinese pieces on the market today were designed with Western tastes in mind. That the rugs produced in the China of old were admired enough to justify an entire industry of Western-specific rugs is a loud testament to their incredible beauty and enduring artistic achievement.
