About the Item

Antique Chinese Rug (size adjusted) Size: 12'1" × 21'7" (368 × 657 cm) An exquisite antique Chinese rug dating back to the early 20th century, this piece exemplifies the restrained elegance and artistic refinement of Chinese weaving tradition. Rendered in a soft, almost ethereal color palette of warm taupe, dusty rose, muted aqua, and powdery blue, the rug features an allover pattern of delicate scrolling tendrils and cloud bands, subtly woven into the field in low contrast, lending the design an almost ghostlike presence. This understated visual effect is complemented by a stylized floral border that incorporates elements of traditional Chinese symbolism, including flame motifs and lotus leaves. The composition achieves a sophisticated balance between ornamental detail and open space, allowing the fine artistry and patina of the silk pile to take center stage. The generous size makes it ideal for a grand room or gallery setting. Woven by hand in lustrous silk with hints of metal-wrapped thread, the rug glows softly under light, enhancing the regal character of the design. This piece is not only a beautiful floor covering but also a rare artifact of Chinese textile art from the transitional period between the Qing dynasty and the Republic era. Its serene palette and graceful composition make it a timeless addition to any refined interior. This exquisite rug is part of the diversified Doris Leslie Blau selections, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
