This antique Peking rug originates from China and dates back to around 1900. It is crafted using wool on a cotton foundation, a common material combination for rugs from this region and period, offering both durability and a luxurious feel. The design follows the traditional Peking style, known for its geometric patterns and intricate motifs.

The rug features a rich, deep blue background which serves as the primary color. The border, which frames the central field of the rug, is a light beige, providing a striking contrast to the darker central area. The overall color palette includes various shades of blue, cream, and dark navy, particularly within the floral and decorative elements.

At the center of the rug, there is an elaborate floral arrangement medallion. This central design includes a vase in a cream color, containing a variety of flowers rendered in blues and creams. Surrounding this medallion, extending towards the border, are various floral and botanical motifs, including stylized roses, blossoms, and vines.

The rug’s border consists of two distinct sections. The inner border features a beige background adorned with intricate floral designs in shades of blue and dark navy. These floral patterns are more prominent at intervals, creating a garland-like effect. The outermost border mirrors the inner border’s design but is slightly broader, continuing the beige background and floral motifs.

Peking carpets, particularly those from the early 20th century, represent a fusion of traditional Chinese motifs with influences from Western design trends. This blend is evident in the vibrant color scheme and intricate geometric patterns of this rug. The craftsmanship of Peking rugs typically involves high-density knotting, contributing to their durability and rich texture, attributes that can be observed in this piece.

While commonly associated with Beijing, or "Peking," the production of these carpets also extends to other cities such as Tientsin and Shanghai. These production centers contributed to the diversity and design variations within the Peking rug category. The influence of Western designers during the early 20th century also introduced new aesthetic elements, leading to the distinctive style seen in this rug.

This rug, with its floral and botanical motifs, rich coloration, and traditional craftsmanship, exemplifies the artistic and cultural heritage of early 20th-century Chinese weaving traditions.

Last fall, my husband and I purchased a gorgeous silk from you for our Boston Condo. Based on the quality of your rugs and customer service, we decided to visit you again to purchase rugs for our Connecticut home. Luckily, we received your postcard about the tent sale and came home with two more stunning rugs.

I can't say enough good things about this store, especially Susanne and Breanna. I shop at many rug places as I am an interior designer looking for very specific rugs all the time. No one out there compares to this store and their wonderful Sales associates. Thank you Susanne and Breanna for all your help!

Susan

Over the past year we purchased three rugs, as well as carpet from L&A. Our experience could not have been more positive and we love what we purchased.

In addition, every single person
in the showroom was beyond helpful, knowledgeable and kind. It was truly a pleasure. Thank you!

Never have I enjoyed spending money as much as at Landry & Arcari!!! Thank you so much for your attention and guidance. The rug I chose grounds the furniture and makes the living room. It is so beautiful and I really appreciate all of your help.
