View AllOversized Chinese Peking Rug in Pale Yellow with Lion Dogs & Cloud Wreaths Motif
Located in Barrington, IL
A truly beautiful and rare oversized Chinese Peking rug from the late 19th century, this piece features a serene and distinctive pale yellow field with a minimalist open design. At the center lies a striking large medallion, adorned with Fu lion dogs (Foo dogs)—symbols of protection and power—surrounded by elegant cloud wreath motifs, symbolizing peace and celestial harmony.
This rug’s composition and style bear a strong resemblance to the revered Ningxia carpets, which originated in the historic Ningxia region—a “wool town” located in north-central China, bordering Gansu and Inner Mongolia.

The combination of its open design, soft color palette, and cultural symbolism makes this rug a rare and valuable example of Chinese textile artistry from the Qing Dynasty period.
Whether used as a statement floor piece or a wall-hung textile, this antique rug brings a sense of quiet elegance, historical richness, and timeless sophistication to any interior.
