Antique Chinese Small Size Wool & Silk Coral Framed Textile , Circa Date: 1850s. This exceptional antique textile, originating from the Qing Dynasty, is less a traditional floor covering and more a finely woven textile art, demonstrating the mastery of 19th-century Chinese craftsmanship. It is a rare example among antique rugs, showcasing intricate embroidery techniques often reserved for imperial garments or wall hangings. The field is dominated by a rich, saturated ground color, best described as a vibrant coral color. Against this warm backdrop, detailed motifs—likely symbolic flora and fauna—are rendered in contrasting shades of indigo, pale blue, and cream, often outlined with delicate gold metallic thread, adding remarkable depth and luster.
