Chinese Peking / 12974

This Chinese Peking antique rug in wool measures 11' 7" x 14' 7" and presents a serene field of cream and beige, accented by blue, white, and soft brown florals. A restrained central medallion floats within an open ground, while the border layers vines, blossoms, and delicate guard lines with measured balance. The surface shows medium wear, with fading that softens the palette and lends depth to the drawing. Circa 1900 - 1915, it carries the quiet elegance and subtle patina that define the most enduring Peking rugs. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
