The Antique Peking Chinese Floral, Medallion Navy 1880s Rug is an exceptional example of late 19th-century weaving from the imperial workshops of China. Hand-knotted from wool, this rectangular rug features a formal composition with a central medallion and scattered floral sprays against a deep, saturated navy field. The design incorporates classical Chinese motifs, including a bold Greek key border and scrolling cloud bands in cream, azure, and muted gold. With a 0.5-inch pile height, this piece demonstrates the sophisticated palette and technical execution characteristic of authentic Peking production. This historic room-sized rug maintains remarkable clarity in its design and color saturation, making it a stunning decorative element for any main living space.
