1920s Blue Grand Scale Antique Chinese Peking Scenic Pictorial Wool Gallery Rug

A striking antique blue Peking, hand-knotted in wool in China around 1920. This one-of-a-kind piece showcases a scenic pictorial across a blue palette, and measures 17'0" x 26'0". Antique Chinese Peking carpets were hand-woven in northern China in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. They are loved for their open, uncluttered fields, soft sculpted wool pile, and motifs drawn from Chinese symbolism - medallions, florals, birds and auspicious emblems. Its generous, oversized scale makes a statement in a great room, primary suite or open-plan space. Its cool blues sit beautifully against warm woods, brass accents and neutral walls. Hand-knotted from durable wool, it is made to be lived with and handed down.
