About the Item
Rugs woven in this particular type of cut-loop technique follow a tradition which dates to the earliest forms of pile weaving. Each of the four panels is woven individually and are then are hand-stitched together. The handle of tsukdruk rugs is extremely supple, indicating that they were not used as floor coverings but as blankets or covers of some sort. The field of these rugs is typically monochrome, as this scheme lends itself to this specific weaving technique. Here we see the indigo background embellished by various motifs we often encounter on flat-woven nambu textiles, which are used as garments of prestige by Tibetan women.

Antique Geometric Design Chinese Rug with Polychrome Diamonds
Located in Milan, IT
There is a group of later Chinese carpets which are characterized by geometric, often abstract patterns that seem inspired by Western sensibilities. What is puzzling however is that most of these weavings have been sourced in recent years in China itself, where they have been used in households ever since they were made. Whatever its origin, the resulting pattern of coloured lozenges has an outstanding three dimensional quality, and can be compared to the most important objects of twentieth century design.
