Antique Chinese - Peking Oversized Wool Ivory Rug, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional late 19th-century weaving exemplifies the refined elegance of the peking style, characterized by its open field design and sophisticated use of negative space. The craftsmanship reflects the high standards of production during the Qing Dynasty's twilight years. The palette is restrained yet impactful, utilizing deep indigo and softer blues against a luminous field of ivory and beige.
