About the Item

Antique Chinese Wool Rug in Celadon Green and Beige (size adjusted) Size: 14'0" × 21'0" (426 × 640 cm) This elegant 19th-century Chinese rug embodies the tranquil beauty and refined craftsmanship typical of the late Qing Dynasty period. Handwoven circa 1880, this piece showcases a graceful symmetry and a serene palette, making it an enduring example of timeless design. The spacious field is rendered in a soft celadon green and punctuated by a rhythmic arrangement of medallion-like roundels, each adorned with stylized cloud motifs or longevity symbols. A larger, more prominent roundel anchors the center of the rug, imbuing the piece with a quiet formality and symbolic gravitas. These repeated motifs are not merely decorative; they evoke traditional Chinese ideals of harmony, prosperity, and enduring life. Framing the composition is a beautifully balanced border composed of a classic meander fret pattern—also known as the Greek key or wan symbol—traditionally associated with infinity and continuity in Chinese design. The corners are softly adorned with delicate floral scrolls that subtly echo the curves of the inner field. Woven entirely of high-quality wool, this rug not only presents exquisite visual softness but also offers lasting durability. The color palette—muted shades of green, sand, and ivory—has mellowed with age, giving the rug a wonderfully aged patina and a calming, almost meditative presence. Ideal for anchoring grand interiors or serene living spaces, this antique Chinese carpet blends cultural heritage with understated elegance. It is a rare find for collectors and decorators seeking a piece that merges history, symbolism, and aesthetic restraint in a single, expansive canvas. This exquisite rug is part of the diversified Doris Leslie Blau selections, renowned for its curated selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs. Doris Leslie Blau offers a vast selection of antique, vintage, and contemporary rugs in a wide range of styles, materials, and price points, making fine textile art accessible to both collectors and designers alike.
