About the Item

The geometric lattice scheme and the wide, almost three-dimensional Greek fret border that distinguishes this rare Mongolian carpet is clearly inspired from the early carpets of the Ningxia region. The exclusive use of undyed natural wool, ivory and two different hues of brown is typical of the carpets of Mongolia and lends the piece a chromatic minimalism that is especially appealing to the aesthetic sense of our times. The mint condition of this rug allows to appreciate fully the beauty of Mongolian carpets at its pinnacle.

Antique Geometric Design Chinese Rug with Polychrome Diamonds
Located in Milan, IT
There is a group of later Chinese carpets which are characterized by geometric, often abstract patterns that seem inspired by Western sensibilities. What is puzzling however is that most of these weavings have been sourced in recent years in China itself, where they have been used in households ever since they were made. Whatever its origin, the resulting pattern of coloured lozenges has an outstanding three dimensional quality, and can be compared to the most important objects of twentieth century design.
