China hand-knotted silk-on-silk carpet, approximately 152 × 90 cm.
Description from the seller
Hand-knotted silk rug from China – floral medallion design
This hand-knotted Chinese silk carpet shows a classically elegant floral medallion design, as is typical for finer Chinese silk works of the 20th century. The design appears deliberately calm and harmonious, with a strong emphasis on ornamentation rather than contrasts.
The light background field is rendered in soft cream and natural tones and is dominated by a central floral medallion that blends softly into the overall image. Delicate floral and vine elements in rose, pale rose, and subtle greens extend across the field and continue into the surrounding border. The softly graduated colors and the fine line work give the rug an elegant, almost textile lightness.
Silk on silk provides a fine sheen and very detailed elaboration of the motifs. Depending on the lighting, the color effect changes subtly, further underscoring the decorative character of this piece. Ideal for tranquil living areas, bedrooms, or as a representative accent piece.
