Antique Chinese Peking Wedding Rug with Chinoiserie Style, 11'01 x 15'05

About the Item

77267 Antique Chinese Peking Wedding Rug, 11'01 x 15'05. Behold, the hand-knotted wool antique Chinese Peking rug that will transport you to a world of elegance and sophistication. Picture this: a rounded open center medallion, delicately floating in a sea of ochre. This medallion is no ordinary design; it's a mesmerizing swirl of blooming peonies, encircling four Chinese characters. And what do these characters say, you ask? "Bai Tou Dao Lao," my friends, which translates to "white heads grow old together." Ah, the sweet sentiment of eternal love, perfect for showering a newly married couple with blessings. Feast your eyes on the corner spandrels, adorned with lotuses, peonies, plum blossoms, and chrysanthemums. These four flowers, intertwined on the same branches, symbolize the ever-changing seasons. Talk about a rug that captures the essence of nature's beauty! The wide main border is a sight to behold, with branches of the four flowers gracefully overlaying a fret and meander motif. It's like a dance of elegance and style, and that winding border pattern represents nothing less than long life and never-ending joy. Additional plum blossoms, the epitome of fortitude and resilience, elegantly decorate the ink blue secondary border. It's like a subtle reminder to keep pushing forward, no matter what challenges come your way. Every element in this antique Peking rug comes together as the various symbols used throughout the piece all come together to create a depth of meaning befitting of a lavish gift to bestow upon a newly married couple. It's not just a rug; it's a story waiting to be told. And with its sumptuous color palette of golden hues, soft neutrals and ink blue accents, this antique Chinese Peking rug would be a wonderful addition to any interior. ​ Rendered in variegated shades of orange, navy blue, taupe, apricot, cerulean, and tan with other accent colors.
