Rug Description
Antique Chinese Souf with Silk and Metal Thread Hand knotted and woven. Ca. 1880
A Chinese imperial carpet with delicate and harmoniously combined shades. The relief design highlights the three-dimensionality of the decorations on a gold background. The design develops unidirectionally. From below, we find rainbows in shades of grey/blue in which a dragon-headed carp fish stands out on the modularity of the lines. The fish,in Chinese tradition symbolizes prosperity and eminence while the dragon symbolizes the emperor. From this succession of rainbows, a large cloud is born, Ruyi with a long trail that expands upwards in width, holding a Confucian time suspended, also surrounded by other small clouds. The border is finely decorated with grids filled with motifs from the Taoist and Buddhist tradition such as the endless knot. Excellent state of preservation.

What Our Clients Say

Sta super bene! Ne sono proprio felice 😍
Jamil | Trieste
This was my second purchase from Mollaian. Just like the first time, the process leading up to the actual purchase of the Antique Turkmen Asmalyk was first class. Amir was most helpful and was always available to respond to my questions. Once I had completed the purchase, the item was immediately dispatched. I received it the next day. Hence I was more than satisfied. The item fulfilled all my expectations. Thank you once again for an impeccable service!

Riccardo | Trento
Il Kirman è proprio bello, esattamente come lo cercavo, in sostituzione di uno vecchio rovinato da una rasatura maldestra risalente a diversi anni fa. Grazie mille!

Le parole non possono descrivere quanto io e mia moglie siamo entusiasti di questo tappeto …
Daniele | Roma
Ho finalmente potuto ritirare il tappeto e sinceramente, e senza falsa modestia posso dire che è veramente bello, al di sopra di ogni aspettativa.
Colori, disegno, semplicità e un pizzico di eleganza. Quasi non sembra che è stato annodato negli anni ’20 visto lo stato del vello! È strepitoso!
Michael and Juliana
We ordered this rug from California, USA and received it in record time of just 2 days!
We are thoroughly satisfied with the level of attention we received and with the quality/price of the rug itself. We also appreciate the professional website layout & presentation and how easy it is to navigate through the inventory.
Silvia | Catanzaro
Ho comprato un tappeto blu Yadan Sherkat che, dal vivo, è risultato essere ancora più bello che in foto. Sono molto soddisfatta del mio acquisto perché ritengo che il rapporto qualità/ prezzo sia ottimo. Inoltre i venditori sono molto gentili, precisi e professionali. Insomma è una esperienza molto più che positiva e che consiglio
