Early Ningxia RugChina
c. early 18th century, this carpet consists of a repeating tiled pattern of 12 rectangles. It blends earthy browns and celestial blues to create the sense that one is peering into the celestial realms. One of the most unique features of this early 18th century antique Chinese Ningxia rug is that each of the sections has its own set of borders, corners and a field, but the overall design of the Ningxia rug does not. This lack of a main border allows the eye to continue off the edge, rather than being restricted to the interior of this early rug. The order and structure embodied in the repeating pattern and harmony of the colors embody the sophistication of Chinese carpet aesthetics. A truly rare and early piece still in good enough condition to be used on the floor.
