Antique Chinese rug, Origin: China, Here is a compelling and exciting antique Dragon rug, woven in China. Vibrant and beautifully preserved, the colors in this antique Chinese carpet are remarkable. Much the same could be said about the drawing, which is incredibly precise and meticulously done. A dragon is arranged against a blue field, within which are several smaller, traditional Chinese elements of design, including clouds and other decorative elements. The dragon him selves is majestic and intimidating , his long body extending. In the centre of the field is one especially majestic dragon, facing frontward with a clever and complex smile curled over his lips. Beautifully woven and exciting, this antique Chinese carpet is an excellent example.
