Antique Peking Chinese Carpet

About the Item

In the 1860s an organized carpet industry was established under imperial patronage in Peking. These carpets tended to have tighter and finer weaves than their Ningxia counterparts, often having knot qualities up to 100 knots per square inch. Most antique Peking carpets employ liberal usage of undyed ivory wool and indigo-colored wool, as the indigo plant was indigenous to China. This example shows a well-balanced overall pattern of floral sprays and shrubs amongst a diamond lattice within an ivory border. 19' 2" x 11' 2".
