This carpet, for instance, occupies a certain style of Chinese rug design that falls between the more ornate and richly decorated examples and the more minimalist, straightforward examples. In this carpet, a simple unadorned band of blue serves as the border, while the entire field consists of ivory crossed over with a complex pattern of tessellating shapes. A highly decorative carpet, this antique rug from China is an intriguing example of an important school of rug weaving.
