Chinese Peking / 15271

This Chinese Peking antique rug presents a saturated blue field framed by a dark floral border, with cream blossoms, pale aqua accents, and a graceful bird motif floating through the centre. The composition feels airy yet disciplined, with scalloped corner reserves and a finely balanced perimeter that gives the piece its quiet rhythm. Medium wear has softened the surface and dulled the contrast just enough to deepen its character. Measuring 2' 7" x 4' 8", it offers an intimate scale and a calm, collected presence. Circa 1920 - 1940. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
