Vintage Peking Medium Wool Beige Rug, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: 1980s. This elegant example of Chinese weaving tradition captures the refined aesthetic popular during the late 20th century, characterized by bold, simplified motifs and a striking color contrast against a soft ground.

The expansive field utilizes a warm, saturated beige color palette, providing a neutral yet luminous ground for the deep indigo and soft sky-blue accents. This restrained use of color highlights the graphic quality of the iconography, allowing the traditional symbols to stand out with clarity and precision.

The central design features a meticulously rendered, repeating allover pattern composed of traditional Chinese symbols: stylized clouds (representing good fortune) and the circular Shou character (longevity), often flanked by auspicious bats (fu). The complex border frames the composition with geometric key patterns and stylized floral elements.

While produced in the 1980s, this piece retains the classic structure and enduring quality of older vintage area rugs. Its medium pile and sophisticated design make it a versatile foundation for both contemporary and traditional interiors seeking a touch of Far Eastern elegance. See less
