Antique Tibetan Rugs 42179

Antique Chinese Rugs -- Antique Tibetan Carpet, 1930'sThis enticing antique Tibetan rug has a traditional design with a modern, decorative appeal. Within a fine ivory diamond lattice, rosettes repeat in alternating rows of apricot and rose, all set against a midnight blue ground. A thin meander or running dog border frames the field, enclosed yet again by a plain outer stripe in the same midnight blue. There is a remarkable counterpoint between the graphic color effects of the rosettes and the fine linearity of the lattice, while the border design combines both these qualities.
