This fabulous antique 1880s Chinese Peking rug captures the essence of a blue sea, featuring an enchanting allover pattern of meandering vines and delicate floral motifs, intricately handwoven into a stunning piece of floor art.
The color palette of this amazing rug is simply enthralling. Different shades of blue blend harmoniously, creating a wonderful visual experience. Hues of tan and beige elegantly pop against the dark navy ground, adding depth and intrigue to the overall design. This is a color story that will elevate any space it graces. The design is truly an outstanding work of art on a Peking, where most don't have this captivating beauty and style.
A palatial-sized rug, it fills the room with its presence, offering a sense of grandeur and luxury. The border boasts an abundance of wool pile, while, the field, with its love worn appearance, carries the undeniable charm of its past life.
Handwoven with vegetable dyed wool, this gorgeous rug embodies the rich traditions of ancient Chinese craftsmanship, making it a true treasure of cultural heritage. While many Peking rugs exist, finding one with an all-over design and a color story as sensational as this is a rarity. Its age, size, and unmatched quality make it a truly valuable acquisition and will bless any space it resides in with character, beauty, and style.
This rug is low pile, has more wool in the borders, and the field is worn, parallel to its age, history and use. It is soft to the touch and has a wonderful, floppy handle.
