Chinese Rug
Chinese
Chinese rugs have a long and rich history, known for their intricate designs, high-quality craftsmanship, and use of natural materials.
The tradition of weaving rugs in China dates back to the Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD), but the most renowned craftsmanship developed during the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1912) dynasties.
Rugs were not only functional but also served as a status symbol among the elite. They were often used in religious settings, homes, and for decorative purposes in palaces.
Traditional Chinese rugs are made from natural materials such as silk, wool, and sometimes cotton. Silk rugs are especially prized for their softness and sheen.
The most common weaving technique is the knotted pile method, although flatweave techniques like “kilims” are also used. Hand-knotting is a time-consuming process that results in high-quality, durable rugs.
Natural dyes derived from plants, minerals, and insects were historically used to create vibrant colours, although synthetic dyes have become common in more modern production.
Many designs in Chinese rugs are rich in symbolism, with motifs drawn from nature (e.g., flowers, animals) and traditional Chinese culture (e.g., dragons, phoenixes). These elements often convey good luck, prosperity, and other positive meanings.
Different regions of China produce distinct styles of rugs. For example, rugs from Beijing often feature highly detailed patterns and motifs, while Tibetan rugs may be more abstract and have vibrant colours.
While many rugs retain traditional designs, modern interpretations often merge traditional motifs with contemporary aesthetics. This has led to a diverse range of styles suitable for various tastes. The production of rugs has evolved with globalization, leading to the availability of both high-end handmade rugs and more affordable machine-made alternatives.
Regular cleaning is necessary to maintain the rug’s appearance and longevity. It is often recommended to have rugs professionally cleaned, especially silk ones.
We were flooded so there is enough stress and strain around you and to have a well organised company like Dan and his crew at Oriental Rug Spa was a total bonus. Thank you to all of you.
Would highly recommend
What's not to like?
I was blown away by the quality of the clean he was able to achieve (on a very large Moroccan rug that fills an entire room) and could not be happier that I went with Dan and the Oriental Rug Spa.
I will certainly be using them again and highly recommend their services.
