Antique Chinese Rug, Origin: China – Ideal for broad corridors and narrow spaces, this antique Chinese dragon carpet has an impressive visage that exudes power and elegance. In a restrained Eastern style, the warm camel-tone field is flanked by a pair of fierce forward-facing dragons that allow the center of the composition to remain beautifully unadorned. The sumptuous wheat-colored field is surrounded by deep ultramarine borders that are filled with a refined pattern of flower-laden vines dotted with flamboyant peacocks. Lavish chrysanthemum blossoms with gradient petals merge with graceful branches and pass by scrolling clouds and perfectly detailed peacocks that have well-defined features, flamboyant tail feathers and the iconic crest. Filamentous vine-scrolls, stylized shading and hairline accents add to the decorative style of the grand dragons and the delicately drawn borders of this antique rug.
