Antique Beijing Silk Palace Carpet - Handmade Asian Rug, Antique Rug

About the Item

Antique Beijing Silk Palace Carpet Northeast China, 19th century during the reign of Emperor Puyi, an inscription indicates that the carpet was manufactured ‘to be used by the emperor in the Hall of Preserving Harmony’ at the imperial palace in Beijing (Forbidden City). The Hall of Preserving Harmony is a very important construction created in the 15th century to the south-east of the Forbidden City. The building was an architectural masterpiece. There are no supporting pillars, and a 250-ton marble track for the imperial litter was transported to the Forbidden City on a layer of ice. During the Ming period, the Emperor would wear his ceremonial garments and rehearse there before performing a ritual. In the Qing period, the hall was also used as a residence for the Shunzhi and Kangxi emperors, and as a location for State receptions in honour of high-ranking guests. Along with the Hall of Supreme Harmony and the Hall of Central Harmony, the Hall of Preserving Harmony constitutes the centre of the imperial city.
