Ningxia Meditation Squares 'Runner' China 2 ft. 1 in. x 7 ft. 4 in.

Description

Ningxia Meditation Squares 'Runner' China circa 18th century, some Ningxia long rugs with designs of multiple matching squares were clearly intended to be used as runners since individual squares share intersecting major borders, but others, such as this piece, were probably woven with the intention that each square would be cut out and used as an individual meditation mat since the duplicate squares do not share intersecting borders. This is an early piece with very thick pile and vivid old colors. 2 ft. 1 in. x 7 ft. 4 in.
