Peking Chinese Rug - Robert T. Mosby Inc. NAME: Peking Chinese Rug CATEGORY: Chinese ORIGIN/TYPE: Peking AGE CLASSIFICATION: pre-1910 PRICE: 3900 USD ID(Jozan): no. 101623 DESCRIPTION: This circa 1880 Peking Chinese rug measures 110 X 17 (335 x 517 cm). It has a pale empty camel hair colored field surrounded by a spectacular midnight blue border 21 wide at each end and 11 wide on each side. All around the frame of the border are meandering flowers in several shades of blue and ivory. The rug has been elongated at either end to accommodate the extravagant decoration on the aprons which consists of a very large urn on a stand filled with flowers, an incense burner with writing implements and an ink bottle, a small open bowl, a large urn in the center with huge chrysanthemums. There is some wear in the field (photographed) which is consistent with the 120 years old age of this carpet. The border except for a small place which is pictured is full pile. The ends and sides are intact. This rug is clean and ready to go. More images
