Semi-Antique Chinese Mongolian Flatweave, Circa 1950 – 3'10" x 10'2"

A unique Chinese Mongolian flatweave rug, handwoven in wool circa 1950. The design features a peach ground decorated with symbolic bamboo trees and scholar’s rocks, accented by auspicious coin motifs within fretwork borders. The elongated proportions (3'10" x 10'2") make this piece especially striking, blending decorative symbolism with refined simplicity.

Mongolian and northern Chinese flatweaves are admired for their clarity of design, symbolic ornamentation, and durability, often serving both practical and ceremonial functions. The peach palette conveys warmth and balance, while the bamboo represents resilience and longevity in Chinese tradition.
