Chinese / 15158

This Chinese antique rug measures 300 x 655 cm and carries a saffron ground edged in teal, with scrolling floral vines, lotus flowers, and stylised birds arranged across a long, graceful field. The composition feels ordered and airy, with rich red-brown outlines and plum accents bringing depth to the warm palette. Woven in wool, it shows low distress, gentle wear, and a softened surface that speaks to age without obscuring the drawing. Circa 1910 - 1925, this Chinese piece holds a poised, decorative presence rooted in early 20th-century design. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
