Antique Chinese Peking rug, size: 8' 1'' x 15' 6''.
Antique Peking Large Room Size Wool Ivory Rug, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of late 19th-century Chinese rugs embodies the refined aesthetic developed in the workshops near the imperial court. The high-quality wool and sophisticated design palette mark it as a piece intended for a discerning clientele.
The expansive field utilizes a luminous, soft ivory color palette, providing a perfect counterpoint to the sparse, yet intricately detailed, decoration. Its generous proportions qualify it as a true large room size piece, capable of anchoring a grand interior space with understated elegance.
The design is characterized by scattered auspicious objects—vases, lanterns, and floral branches—floating across the open ground, a classic Peking motif known as the "Hundred Antiques." These elements are subtly organized around a distinctive circular central medallion rendered in deep indigo and pale blue hues, creating visual harmony without overwhelming the composition.
Framed by a precise T-fret border, the rug maintains a structural formality that complements its free-flowing interior motifs. Pieces of this age and condition are increasingly rare, representing a significant acquisition for collectors of fine antique rugs and historical textiles.
