Antique Chinese Rug, Fine Antique
About the Item
"Antique Chinese Rug, Fine Antique"
Old carpet called "Fine Antique" China/Beijing around 1920.
This very beautiful fine antique Chinese painterly rug, in hand-knotted wool, features an abraded tan field featuring various types of spouting cloisonné vases with stylized flowers resting on pedestals.
The main border, which features repeating diamond patterns containing clouds of peony flowers linking together, echoes the balance of geometric shapes and floral touches used.
It was the great Chinese poet Li Bai who compared the beauty of his mistress "Yang Yuhuan" to peonies. He wrote : "The floating clouds remind me of her clothes, and the peonies of her face."
In most New Year's images, children always hold peonies. Peonies carry people's wishes for a rich and promising new year.
