Small Scatter Size Decorative Antique Tibetan Rug, Country of Origin: Tibet, Circa Date: 1930’s – Tibetan rugs are renowned for their patterning and strong use of color. The antique Tibetan rugs are often made from the Tibetan highland sheep’s wool, which indigenous people call “changpel”. Because of how versatile and reliable the Oriental rugs were themselves, they were often used for a number of different purposes, including as horse saddle cover rugs, floor coverings as well as for sleeping. This particular charming  small scatter size rug works with an elegantly understated interior design in the field that emphasizes neutral colors in order to draw the viewer’s attention to the patterning at the foreground. This beautiful small scatter size antique decorative Tibetan rug features bright, sunny blooms seem to connect to each other along a network of lines, creating a symmetrical display that adds tremendous decorative value within any environment.
