This soulful antique Peking rug, measuring 3’ x 5’10 has an effortlessly aged presence that speaks of time, tradition, and artistry. The muted camel field, kissed by time, holds a delicate floral scene that’s subtle, elegant, and deeply poetic. Framed with an indigo border adorned with scrolling vines, auspicious motifs, and soft abrash, this piece carries the quiet dignity that makes old Peking rugs so special.
One striking detail is the Buddhist swastika woven into the design, an ancient symbol of good fortune, longevity, and harmony in Chinese culture. A reminder that symbols, like these rugs, transcend generations, carrying stories from the past into new spaces.
Worn-in, softened by age, with scattered wear, it is still standing strong and will be able to withstand all the foot traffic with its sturdy foundation. Whether grounding a space or serving as a statement textile, this one is pure old-world charm in its most understated form.
