Vintage Chinese Peking Indian Rug, 05'11
x 08'11.

This hand knotted wool vintage Chinese Peking style rug features a
rounded open centre medallion comprised of interlaced peony blossoms and
vinery. Floral motifs including plum blossoms, chrysanthemums, lotuses and
peonies float in the field surrounding the medallion. Together, these four
flowers represent the Four Seasons and cycle of life. Additional large lotuses,
surrounded by lovely scrolling greenery, emanate from the corners. The
attractive main border features many Buddhist and other traditional Chinese
symbols accompanied by beautiful peony blossoms and leafy tendrils. These
symbols are among the most enduring Chinese motifs. The wheel is the most
important Buddhist symbol and represents the cyclical view of life that is
central to Buddha���s teachings. The umbrella represents authority and
protection, the canopy represents royalty, the endless knot symbolizes
longevity and eternity, and the vase represents everlasting harmony. In
contrast to the more complex main border, the simple pearl inner guard border
adds balance to the composition. Rich symbolism, a restrained color palette and
beautiful detailing make this vintage Chinese rug both meaningful and
sophisticated.
