About the Item

This mid-20th century Tibetan pictorial runner, measuring 1' 7" x 6' 5", bursts with expressive imagery and vibrant color. Woven in a striking palette dominated by deep charcoal and burgundy tones, the composition features two stylized pink lions, their fierce yet whimsical forms animated with wide eyes and expressive faces. Between them stands a regal bird, possibly a phoenix, rendered in warm gold and crimson tones, framed by an abstracted peacock feather motif. Surrounding flora and fauna leaves, butterflies, and birds float across the field, lending a dreamlike, narrative quality to the design. Tibetan pictorial rugs often depict elements of local folklore or symbolic imagery, and this runner is no exception. The playful color scheme and bold iconography evoke a sense of storytelling, while the hand-knotted wool construction retains the authenticity of Himalayan craftsmanship. Perfect for collectors or eclectic interiors, this piece functions as both a textile and a vibrant visual artwork.
