About the Item
A very finely woven antique Chinese rug woven in the Imperial workshops of Peking. Distinguished by an elegant pattern of scrolling lotus flowers on an indigo background, this type represents the highest quality of weaving originating from China during the last decades of the Qing Dynasty. In this period the designs were based on patterns which were characteristic of the earlier Qing period, which in turn derived from the Ming Dynasty. Here the lotus blossoms, the symbol of purity, are connected by leafy tendrils, creating a sense of harmony and balance. A masterpiece in every respect.

Early Chinese Kangxi Period '1662-1722' Ningxia Rug with Blossom Palmettes
Located in Milan, IT
A very unusual Chinese rug, possibly used originally as a dais cover, which had been previously attributed to the Western region of Gansu (H. König, Gansu, Hali 138, London 2005, pl. 13, p. 58). However both the structure and the colours are fairly typical of Ningxia weavings from the Kangxi period (1662-1722), which marks the first Qing Dynasty empire following the Ming Dynasty and which still carries much of its iconography. Of particular note are the four stylised blue dragons on a coral background which decorate the corners of the composition. A true masterpiece of early Chinese textile art.
