This authentic antique Chinese Peking rug exemplifies the refined elegance and symbolic artistry of early Chinese weaving traditions. The softly abrash ivory field is beautifully contrasted by deep indigo and slate-blue tones, creating a calm yet sophisticated presence ideal for both traditional and modern interiors.
Hand-knotted from fine wool, the rug has a supple handle and a low, gracefully worn pile that speaks to its age and authenticity. Natural patina, subtle color variation, and gentle wear enhance its character without detracting from its visual clarity.

The central medallion is framed by delicately rendered scholar motifs and stylized botanical elements, arranged in a balanced, symmetrical composition. A classic Greek key–inspired border, accented with geometric and abstract symbols, anchors the design and reflects the influence of ancient Chinese decorative arts.

Color Palette: Soft ivory, antique cream, indigo blue, slate blue, charcoal, and subtle steel blue accents.
Elegant, restrained, and historically rich, this antique Peking rug is perfect for collectors, designers, or anyone seeking a timeless piece that pairs beautifully with minimalist, Asian-inspired, or eclectic interiors. See less
