About the Item

Made with hand-knotted wool in China circa 1850-1860, this 6x9 antique Ningxia rug is a distinguished mid-19th-century addition to Rug Kilim’s collection of traditional Chinese textiles. Its warm golden tones and timeless composition make it equally compelling as a decorative statement and a collector’s piece. On the Design: Designers and collectors will be captivated by the refined artistry of this antique Ningxia rug, a testament to traditional Chinese weaving. Warm gold and yellow tones frame geometric patterns, including a border of Greek Key swastikas and a field of rectilinear motifs inspired by ancient dragon pictorials—symbols long associated with power, protection, and prosperity in Chinese culture. Hand-knotted in wool with a supple, enduring pile, the rug reflects both the technical mastery and the rich cultural heritage of Ningxia artisans. Its harmonious blend of color, symbolism, and structure makes this piece a distinguished example of Chinese textile art, equally compelling as a decorative statement and as a collector’s treasure. Condition: This antique Ningxia rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin.
