Hand-knotted in wool circa 1920-1930, this 9x11 antique 9x11 Indochinese Art Deco rug is a rare and exciting curation from the Rug & Kilim collection.
On the Design:
This is an extremely collectible piece with a very particular cultural imagery in Chinese mythology. A gold field underscores a series of Kirin pictorials—beasts often mistaken for dragons, but an equally significant creature often associated with the emperor and other major changes in Asian history. The play of red and blue in the pictorials, florals, and border’s interlocking fret patterns further plays beautifully with the gold—a rich piece of culture as much as a regal, elegant collectible for connoisseurs and designers alike.
Condition:
This antique pictorial rug further enjoys great condition for its age and lineage. less
