Antique Ningxia Chinese Medallion Square Hand Knotted Pile Rug, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: 1890s. This exquisite piece represents the finest tradition of late Qing Dynasty weaving. It is a remarkable example of Chinese rugs from the period, utilizing a rich palette dominated by imperial gold and deep indigo. The dense, highly textural wool pile is characteristic of ningxia rugs, offering a luxurious tactile experience that speaks to its age and quality. The field design centers on a powerful central medallion filled with stylized, mirrored dragon motifs, traditional symbols of power and good fortune. The contrast between the saturated navy ground and the shimmering golden figures creates dramatic visual depth.
