Early 20th Century Chinese Peking Carpet ( 4' x 5' - 122 x 152 )
Antique Peking Chinese Allover Floral Beige 1900s Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional Chinese Peking carpet from the early 20th century exemplifies the refined aesthetic of the period. Its expansive field is dominated by a warm, luminous beige tone, providing a serene backdrop for the detailed border. This piece is a superb example of antique rugs crafted during the Republic era.
The central panel features a subtle, almost monochromatic field, allowing the texture and quality of the wool to speak for itself. The choice of a neutral ground highlights the sophisticated use of contrasting colors in the frame. The primary field color falls into the desirable category of ivory and beige color rugs, offering versatility for modern interiors seeking warmth without visual clutter.
A striking border frames the composition in a deep, saturated indigo blue. Within this frame, highly stylized cloud-band and abstract floral motifs are rendered in shades of sky blue and pale terracotta. This geometric yet fluid design provides a dynamic counterpoint to the quiet elegance of the central field, showcasing the masterful balance characteristic of fine Peking weaving.
While the design is grand, the scale of this piece suggests it was intended as a functional accent or small scatter size rug. Its dimensions make it ideal for an entryway, bedside placement, or beneath a small accent table, allowing its historical beauty to be appreciated in intimate spaces.
