China-Beijing - Carpet - 318 cm - 77 cm

Two Chinese Pekinese rugs – 318 × 77 cm – Wool on cotton – Handmade – circa 1950–1960

We present to you a set of two Chinese Peking rugs, runner format, handcrafted entirely in wool on a cotton warp. These are authentic pieces from the 1950s–1960s, showcasing the classic quality of traditional Beijing workshops.

Both rugs stand out for their typical Peking design: floral medallions, Chinese decorative symbols, and an elegant brick-red border with stylized flowers in shades of blue, pink, and cream. The colors are dyed with natural and vegetable pigments, beautifully preserved.

Important:
The tone variations visible in some photos are solely due to the direction of the hair and the lighting effect. They are not stains or discolorations.
