Oversized 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. Ningxia rugs have a long history dating back to the 17th century, crafted for use in mandarin residences and aristocratic homes across imperial China. 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.

19th Century Near Square Oversized Chinese Peking Rug in Wheat, Blue, Brown
Located in Barrington, IL
This rare 19th-century oversized Chinese Peking rug features a stunning near-square format and a serene open-field design reminiscent of early Ningxia carpets from the 18th and early 19th centuries. The rug's unusually beautiful wheat-colored field is adorned with soft Tiffany blue, sky-blue, and navy motifs, creating a refined and tranquil palette. The open field is subtly decorated with auspicious Chinese symbols representing fortune, prosperity, and longevity, thoughtfully arranged to bring balance and spiritual richness to the design. A flowing sky-blue meandering vine border gently frames the composition, adding elegance and movement without overpowering the minimalism of the field. With its classic color harmony and historical significance, this Peking rug is a timeless statement piece, ideal for luxury interiors, serene sanctuaries, or curated collections. Its oversized proportions and soft coloration make it perfect for anchoring grand rooms with understated sophistication.
