Silk and Metallic Thread Chinese Carpet

About the Item

An extremely rare silk and metallic thread Chinese carpet in excellent overall condition measuring 8' 9" x 6' 2" . The Ningxia region in northern China is generally accepted as being one of the first regions to actively weave carpets in that country. This has been attributed to shared cultural links with the Central Asian population to the west. The weavers in this region were converted by Arabs in the ninth century to the Muslim faith, linking them directly to their counterparts in East Turkestan who had woven carpets for centuries. The style of these rugs can be compared with the highest forms of Chinese court art. Although presented in an often limited range of colors, the designs convey philosophical, religious, and social concepts.
