Peking – Classic Carpet
Peking rugs, also known as Beijing carpets, originate from northern China and are admired for their refined elegance, restrained compositions, and rich symbolic language. Traditionally woven for imperial palaces and scholarly interiors, these carpets often feature expansive open fields and carefully considered motifs, reflecting Chinese philosophical ideals of harmony, balance, and quiet authority.
This Peking Classic rug is a modern hand-knotted interpretation woven in northern Afghanistan by skilled artisans who preserve the classical design language of historic Chinese carpets. While inspired by traditional Peking prototypes, the rug is realized through Afghan craftsmanship, giving it warmth, individuality, and a distinctly hand-made character.
The rug is woven using high-mountain wool from sheep raised at elevations above 1,000 meters, where cooler climates produce fleece naturally rich in lanolin. This quality wool provides durability, resilience, and a gentle natural sheen, allowing the rug to age gracefully while maintaining its refined appearance.
Entirely hand-knotted, the design is centered around a single, commanding dragon motif, a powerful symbol in Chinese culture representing strength, protection, and imperial authority. Set within a spacious, uncluttered field, the dragon appears both dynamic and balanced, allowing the design to breathe while maintaining a strong visual presence.
The result is a timeless carpet that bridges classical Chinese symbolism with contemporary interiors—distinctive, serene, and enduring.

Commission Your Own
This piece is one of a kind — but the artisans who wove it can create a new rug in its spirit, hand-knotted to your exact dimensions.
Every hand-knotted rug begins with a single knot.
Skilled artisans tie each knot entirely by hand, one at a time, using techniques that
have been passed down through generations. Depending on the size and intricacy of
the design, a room-sized rug may contain millions of individually tied knots.
For a single weaver, completing one masterpiece can take one to two years—or even
longer—making every rug a remarkable work of art, craftsmanship, and patience.

Questions About This Rug
