About the Item
Checkerboard rugs are among the most sought-after antique Tibetan weavings. Their appeal lies in the simplicity and, at the same time, sophistication of the geometric pattern, which is typically rendered in two contrasting colours, although the are a few variations to the theme. This example is distinguished by the use of a rare lacquer red as well as by the presence of a simple border, separating the composition from the monochromatic frame. The rug is woven with very fine and glossy Himalayan highland wool, which imparts a sparkling quality to the colours.

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.
