Vintage Chinese Pictorial Art Deco Room Size Carpet

No. 31475
China, Mid-20th Century
8 ft. 11 in. x 11 ft. 1 in.
(2.70 x 3.35 m)

A wool pile with asymmetric knots on a cotton foundation. The rose-colored field features full and semi-circular pictorial vignettes, including bulls parading past a tree, a monkey between two cypresses, an owl above flowers, and a religious shrine amidst banded mountains and trees. Leopards and spotted deer (?) freely inhabit the field's reserve. The ecru main border displays palmettes, vinery, and buds over a cracked ice pattern. A very unusual carpet with distinctive iconography, in good condition.
