Antique Chinese Chinese - Peking Ivory 1890s Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional late 19th-century Peking weaving exemplifies the refined elegance sought in antique rugs of the period. Its striking palette, featuring deep indigo blue against a luminous ivory ground, recalls the classic beauty of Ming Dynasty porcelain, offering a sophisticated foundation for any interior. The masterful use of negative space allows the intricate blue motifs to float gracefully across the expansive ivory field. This specific coloration, favoring clarity over complexity, was highly prized by Western collectors and remains a timeless choice for sophisticated interiors requiring a neutral yet impactful aesthetic. The field features a complex, repeating vine and floral lattice, executed in a precise allover design that ensures visual continuity across the entire surface.
