"Ancient Chinese Dragon Rug. Art Deco, Around 1920 "
China has a long and remarkable artistic tradition of carpet production, dating back to the 15th century. Originally, the designs and patterns were inspired by Chinese culture: porcelain, landscapes, majestic dragons, religious symbols.The designs on Chinese rugs are usually cut in relief, giving them their famous three-dimensional appearance.
Very rare, these carpets sometimes hide pure gold threads.
Chinese silk carpets have a very high knotting density, and their design is largely inspired by the motifs of ancient Persian crafts.
