Zabihi Collection 19th Century Monkey Pictorial Chinese Rug

About the Item

A late 19th century Chinese rug featuring 3 monkeys and some birds on a landscape scene. Navy field, beige accent colors. Some age-related wear Measures: 7' x 8'6" Decorative oriental, Chinese rugs and carpets have been a significant art form within the Chinese culture for many centuries, if not for several millennia. The history of Chinese rugs apart from being long and distinguished is largely independent of that of the Middle East vintage rugs. It was not until the 19th century, the Chinese started exporting Chinese rugs to the world of the West – other goods, such as bronzes and porcelain have already been exported for many years before. Often employing silk textiles, antique Chinese rugs and carpets were produced in medallion as well as rectangular formats. Chinese rugs tend to be more open and spacious than the Oriental carpets from Western Asia. Pictorial Formats like this stellar example are becoming harder to find.

Extremely Rare Early 20th Century Pictorial Chinese Rug
Located in Chicago, IL
An extremely rare early 20th century pictorial Chinese rug depicting Chinese scholar's objects like potted peonies and chrysanthemums, citron (Buddha's Fingers) with a censor, and a peach, all symbols of longevity and prosperity. The border is wonderful, with a wide floral and vine pattern running in a circular fashion around the rug. The rare quality of this rug lies not in the imagery, but in the color. Most Central Asian rugs utilize crimsons, golds, oranges, and natural brown wools, however this example is woven mostly in varying shades of indigo, reminiscent of traditional Chinese blue and white pottery.
