Featuring a timeless checkered pattern in neutral oatmeal and blackish-indigo blue, this traditional Tibetan carpet design was far ahead of its time.

Antique Chinese Rug, China, Circa 1900 – Ideal for any interior aesthetic, this traditional Tibetan checkerboard carpet has a bold, graphic style and broad design appeal.
