Made with hand-knotted wool in China circa 1900-1910, this 10x15 antique Chinese rug is a rare Peking rug of exceptional beauty and quality—an exciting new curation from Rug & Kilim’s collection of early 20th century rugs.On the Design:Cream and blue tones underscore a spacious, elegant work of medallion and all over style, teeming with floral patterns and even pictorials (some of which admirers of the craft may recognize to be Buddhist imagery, though this piece witnesses a very European influence in its sensibility). Its detail is commendable, especially in the precise curvature one seldom sees in this large size, such as those of its field spandrels, and especially in the vases and butterflies the keen eye will admire afloat in the field. It has a sense of grandeur, yet it’s so comfortable in its tones, among the handful of truly special pieces one might call extraordinary in their execution of regal yet comfortable; a fine balance to achieve. Condition: This antique Peking rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin—a gorgeous collectible of large size and vast design applications.
