Mid 19th Century N. Chinese Mongolian Carpet

This carpet is a pair with 20411, both in the classically correct blue and white style. Frets are everywhere: the fret wave border, the thick deep blue fretwork corners, the bold “Shou” centered medallion with outlining fretwork sections. Clouds and bats are evenly distributed throughout the field. Of clearly northernmost Chinese origin, Mongolian carpets often simplify and enlarge traditional motives for extra impact.
