About the Item

77439 Rare Antique Chinese Peking Rug, 11'10 x 18'09.Woven at the intersection of imperial artistry and contemplative serenity, this exquisite hand-knotted wool antique Chinese Peking rug stands as a paragon of Eastern refinement. Originating in the early 20th century, it embodies a rarefied synthesis of philosophical symbolism and luxurious craftsmanship. At its tranquil center lies a softly rounded medallion, where stylized florals, leafy arabesques, and a signature butterfly—emblem of transformation and ephemeral beauty—converge in poetic harmony. This exclusive medallion, suspended within a whispering field of open space, evokes the aesthetics of Chinese landscape painting, where the power of negative space invites stillness, introspection, and elevated taste. Surrounding this exquisite work of art is a lyrical constellation of traditional and iconic Chinese symbols, each rendered with masterful restraint. Floating birds and clustered ducks suggest fidelity and conjugal bliss, while flowering sprays and ruyi-shaped clouds drift across the woolen canvas, their auspicious forms bestowing heavenly favor. The inclusion of bamboo, a revered emblem of strength and integrity, pairs gracefully with the presence of vases—archetypes of peace, wisdom, and the cultivated life. Together, these enigmatic motifs unfold like an allegorical scroll, revealing a world where nature and the spirit exist in perfect balance. It is not merely a rug, but a visual philosophy woven for the enlightened collector. The exceptional border, a sublime composition in its own right, amplifies the rug’s story of continuous flow and cultivated abundance. Angular blossoms bloom rhythmically within a sea of stylized waves—symbols of the eternal Dao and the generative forces of life. Amid this tide of floral movement, delicate cartouches hold miniature vessels and planters, offering a quiet ode to the scholar’s garden, where order and beauty serve the mind as much as the senses. Each element is hand-knotted with patience and precision, the celestial palette of ivory, soft blues, faded rose, and subtle caramel browns forming a chromatic symphony that whispers rather than shouts—an expression of luxury meant for the discerning few. To acquire this antique Chinese Peking rug is to possess a woven meditation on harmony, resilience, and the sublime. As rare as it is refined, it speaks to an elite sensibility—one attuned not merely to wealth, but to meaning, history, and cultural stewardship. In a world increasingly enamored with the ephemeral, this precious masterpiece offers permanence rooted in symbolism and craftsmanship. It is a legacy piece, a curated fragment of Chinese aesthetic philosophy that transforms any room into a sanctuary of elegance and elevated thought. This is not just décor; it is a cultural heirloom, imbued with the power to enchant, enlighten, and endure.
