Antique Peking Chinese Geometric Ivory Beige Cream White 1900s Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional Chinese Peking rug captures the sophisticated aesthetic of the late Qing Dynasty period. Its design relies on a highly structured composition, typical of the finest antique rugs woven for the imperial court or wealthy clientele. The palette is remarkably restrained, utilizing a rich, luminous field of ivory beige cream white tones, providing a perfect counterpoint to the dramatic indigo blue used for the motifs and borders. The open field is subtly overlaid with tone-on-tone cloud bands, adding depth and movement beneath the primary iconography. The central design features five large circular medallions, symmetrically placed, enclosing dynamic figures—likely dragons or mythical beasts—rendered in striking blue.
