This stunning antique Peking Dragon wool rug is a magnificent example of Chinese textile artistry, steeped in imperial symbolism and cultural richness. Set against a deep, celestial blue field, the design comes alive with vivid depictions of dragons, phoenixes, flaming pearls, and stylised clouds all masterfully rendered in shades of rust, ivory, celadon, and ochre. The mighty dragon, a symbol of strength and protection, coils dynamically across the surface, balanced by the elegance of the phoenix, representing harmony and rebirth. Handwoven in lustrous wool, the rug exudes both visual drama and historical depth, making it a striking focal point for any collector or connoisseur of Asian decorative arts.
Authentic vintage and antique Chinese Oriental rugs are hand-knotted with wool or silk. Each one is an exceptional work of art and unique.
Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to these rugs' handmade and preloved nature, slight imperfections and flaws are not defects.
Our rugs are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life. Additionally, we recommend using a rug pad with a grippy back to keep your rug in place and to smooth out any wrinkles that may have occurred during shipping. Using a rug pad will also safeguard your carpet from deterioration and therefore extend the life of your rug.
