Mongolia, Engsi Design (Tent Door Cover)
Vintage
wool on cotton, approx. 190 x 136 cm
This beautiful Mongolian engsi design rug features a striking design with a rich, warm red field that serves as the background for an elegant floral arrangement in a decorative vase. The central motif consists of a finely detailed vase in shades of gold and brown, resting on an ornate pedestal. Delicate flowers in soft white, blue, and pink tones emerge from the vase, with stylized green leaves adding depth and contrast.
The upper portion of the rug includes an intricate border featuring a combination of traditional Mongolian and Chinese-inspired motifs. A classic key pattern in deep blue and ivory runs across the top, symbolizing continuity and protection. Below this, a muted blue-gray band is adorned with small floral accents, followed by vertical stripes in earthy shades of brown, and beige, creating a visually balanced transition.
This rug is an excellent example of Mongolian craftsmanship, blending traditional symbolism with Art Deco influences. Its bold yet refined design makes it a versatile piece, suitable for both antique and modern interiors.
