A very finely knotted antique Chinese carpet from the Art Nouveau period distinguished by a tone-on-tone all over design of stylized lotus flowers connected to one another through a network of geometricised leafs. The unusual border is composed pairs of dragons flanking a ‘shou’ ideogram, which is a symbol for longevity. The velvety texture of the pile imparts some kind of translucency to the colors, which are exceptionally soft and non obtrusive. A highly decorative carpet that can serve many purposes and that is very easily adaptable to any style.
