Large Oversized Beautiful Yellow Gold Background Antique Chinese Rug, Country of Origin: China, Circa Date: Early 20th Century – Rich raspberry lotus flowers on deep green leafy stems repeat symmetrically across the deep ochre colored field of this sumptuous antique Ningshia from imperial China. At the center the design opens up a bit, allowing for a small, subtle openwork medallion. The elements of the field design are modified somewhat in the main border, where they appear as a dragon-like vine-scroll in cloud-band formation, but set against a cool grayish tan ground that provides a lovely contrast to the field. Minor vine-scroll borders on a lighter tan ground enhance the framing effect of the border for the entire carpet.
