About the Item

This Early 20th century Chinese Peking rug, measuring 1' 5" x 1' 6", embodies the refined artistry and symbolic depth characteristic of Peking weaving traditions. Its design is centered around a striking avian motif, likely a stylized phoenix or mythical bird, which holds deep cultural significance in Chinese art, symbolizing renewal, longevity, and harmony. The bird is depicted with rounded wings and finely articulated feathers in warm golden tones, accented by contrasting black talons and a subtle blue head, giving it both elegance and authority. The simplicity of the open field allows the central image to command full attention, framed by a deep indigo border that enhances the composition’s balance. Rugs of this type were often woven as small mats or seating covers, prized for both their symbolic value and decorative versatility. This piece exemplifies the Peking tradition’s ability to blend minimalism with rich cultural meaning, making it a striking collectible treasure.
